Discover the delicate art of remaillage with Mélanie, a passionate remailleuse, and learn how to give new life to your sweaters with holes. In a creative, sustainable and rewarding approach, this workshop will help you understand knitwear so you can better repair it, in a friendly atmosphere accessible to all.

Workshop schedule (2h30) :

• Understanding stitches: learn how to recognize a stitch and follow its path while embroidering, so as to grasp its structure.
• Repairing a hole on one row: demonstration and practice with a different-colored thread to clearly visualize the steps.
• Repairing on several rows: progress towards a more technical repair, first with a contrasting thread, then with a thread of the same color for greater precision.
• Self-sufficiency: personalized advice and guidance to ensure that you leave the workshop able to repair the majority of small, everyday holes.

An enriching and satisfying experience, ideal for adopting a sustainable approach, extending the life of your garments and rediscovering the pleasure of wearing your favorite knitwear.
