Sock mending skill-share

At the May Day Gathering 2026 in so-called Kingston, NY

Friday, May 1st, 2 PM – 7 PM
(Skill-share time TBD)
Forsyth Park, “Kingston, NY”

Mend what you’ve got and keep using it! Don’t know how? Come to the skill-share to learn to darn your socks.

Bring your holey socks and any mending materials you’d like to use. There will also be plenty of materials available at the skill-share.

I got myself a speedweve #darning loom! I probably could have chosen an easier #mending project than a delicate cashmere blend scarf to try it out on but I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. I still need to work on making neater edges but that’s just practice. #VisibleMending

The darning will continue until socks improve!

I set aside my embroidery this week to resume some darning.

Have been darning so many socks lately, but finally doing the last sock!

Repairing my clothing is an almost weekly task for me. It could really be a daily task if I wanted it to be. There are enough repairs to make.

I found a much longer needle to use with my Katrinkles #darning loom and it makes things so much easier. #knitting #mending
