Those who know me know that my dogs are my constant companions.

What you don’t see here is that just as I was finishing up my little Roxy came to me for the last time 🥹
It seems unbearably fitting that this mend was a heart 💗 🐾

So, whether it’s for the love of dogs or mending, please come & lift my spirits as I teach sock darning tomorrow, Valentines Day

Roxy wasn’t just a part of my life, she was our community. You can see her waiting tables at t’Stokershuis and you’ll find her picture on the wall there too.

Show your socks some love on Valentine’s Day ♥️

I’ll be holding a workshop on 14th February; Kringwinkel ‘t Rad, St.Jacobstraat, 8000 Brugge

Bring along that lonely holey sock & bond over a mending session.
The mending method shown here involves no stitching at all & is ideal for small holes & thin areas but I’ll also be sharing other methods of darning.
