New workshop with Celia Pym!  Celia joins us for a wonderful workshop on mending socks to celebrate the launch of her new book- Socks, Imaginative Mending. 


Saturday 31 st January 2026
1.30-3.30pm

After the class we'll also have a FREE event SOCKS Salon with Celia Pym From 4.30-6.30pm,- to celebrate Pym's new book SOCKS Imaginative Mending, please join us for sock darning and book signing! 

Discover the gentle art of sock repair in our SOCK Mending Workshop. With Celia's guidance you'll explore why mending matters, how it’s done, and the joy that comes from giving beloved socks a longer life.

During the session, you’ll delve into inspiring examples of artists working with repair, and you’ll learn two beautiful and practical techniques: woven darning and duplicate stitch. We’ll provide a selection of factory “waste socks” for you to practice on, but please feel free to bring along any well-worn favourites—holes and all. We always love seeing them and finding creative ways to mend each pair.

All materials are included: yarns, needles, and darning eggs.

This workshop is suitable for everyone, from complete beginners to those with some mending experience. No prior darning, knitting, or needlework knowledge is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to stitch.

About Celia
Celia Pym has been exploring mending since 2007 with extensive experience of
small everyday holes, at heels, elbows, in pockets as well as working on more
dramatic damage, from water damage, animal nesting and moths issues. Celia’s
interests are around the evidence of damage – through repair you look closely at
where garments and cloth have got worn down and thin. In clothing this wearing is
often to do with use and how the body moves. Celia says: “I like that darning is often
small acts of care and paying attention to where things fray and wear out.”
This special workshop coincides with the publication of Celia’s new book SOCKS
imaginative mending – documenting a recent commission where she taught a whole
primary school how to darn a sock.

Great suit jacket
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
We bought this for my son’s school dance and his confirmation. They matched his suit pants that we purchased from a department store and the jacket fit perfectly, running true to size.

Decent
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Smells strange, assuming its the dye. Good fit, although the arms are quite long. Also had some strange stitch going across the left breast area that seemed like a mistake and was an eye sore. Good value overall for a quick put together suit.

Nice Suit For The Price
This suit was a time-saver! My wife ordered a tux that wasn't going to make it for a formal occasion, so this was ordered and came within three days. It was a good thing she purchased 2, in case of sizing errors. The extra large pants worked, but sizing down to the large jacket & vest made the best combination/fit. We didn't go with the blue/black bow tie & flower it came with, but may for another event. However, being able to work interchangeably at a low price was rewarding!! Thought to add comments that the look of this suit is pleasing (though it's not the best thread). The workmanship gives it a 5 and even greater. The compliments were many. I do suggest using a good steam iron that will eliminate the wrinkles, without creating unwanted creases, while barely touching the suit; but, definitely follow the creases in the pants leg.

Disappointed
Size: XX-Large, Color: Light Grey, Size: XX-Large, Color: Light Grey
Overview of the Purchase Experience I recently ordered a 3-piece suit for my significant other, who is quite tall at 6’8”. I was excited about this purchase, hoping it would be a stylish addition to his wardrobe. However, upon receiving the suit, I encountered several issues that I feel compelled to share. Color Discrepancy One of the most disappointing aspects of this order was the color inconsistency. The suit was supposed to be a cohesive set, but it arrived with two different colors. This mismatch not only detracted from the overall aesthetic but also made it difficult to wear as a complete outfit. When purchasing a suit, especially a three-piece one that includes trousers, a vest, and a jacket, one expects all pieces to match in color and style. Unfortunately, this was not the case here. Quality Concerns In addition to the color issues, I found the quality of the fabric and construction to be subpar. The material felt cheap and did not have the durability or elegance one would expect from a suit. The stitching appeared uneven in places, and there were loose threads that raised concerns about its longevity. A well-made suit should exude quality and craftsmanship; however, this product fell short on both counts. Fit Issues Related to Height Given my significant other’s height (6’8”), finding suits that fit well can be challenging. While I cannot recall his exact weight at this moment, it’s important to note that tall individuals often require tailored fits or specific sizing options that accommodate their stature. Unfortunately, even if the colors had matched and the quality had been better, I doubt this suit would have fit him properly without additional alterations. Conclusion Overall, my experience with this 3-piece suit has been disappointing due to color discrepancies and poor quality construction. For anyone considering purchasing this item for someone tall or for themselves, I would recommend looking elsewhere unless you are prepared for potential issues with fit and appearance.
