Beret, Beanie or Both------------Upcycling transformation workshop.

Come and spend a joyful, hands on session with Jules as you dive into the world of upcycling! Whether you’re a seasoned re purposer or just dipping your toes into the trend, you’ll soon be eyeing up every jumper in your wardrobe with fresh excitement.

Together, you’ll learn how to turn a simple knitted sweater into a chic beret, a bold beanie, or—if you’re feeling adventurous—both! Jules will walk you through each step, and you’ll head home with printed instructions so you can keep creating.

Templates, yarn and sewing supplies are included but you will need to bring along a sweater.

To participate in this workshop please bring along a round neck, long sleeved jumper you’re happy to transform.

Jules is a skilful maker with crafting in her genes. She began her sewing journey as a teenager when she found that the available fashion wasn’t funky enough for her! So she ‘apprenticed’ herself to her dressmaker grandma and her love of all things craft was born. Her skills quickly encompassed knitting and crochet followed by studies in a wide range of crafts from pottery to parchment; before concentrating on the soft crafts and jewellery making she is best known for today.
Jules is a freelance tutor, designer, and demonstrator. Jules is a popular workshop tutor, being an avid supporter of passing on her knowledge, hints, and tips. Jules can be found at many of the larger craft shows enthusiastically teaching in the workshop studios or demonstrating on the main stages. She also  offers individual and small group tuition on a diverse range of skills. She is a pattern author and has made frequent T.V. Guest Designer appearances. She is a level 6 Diploma Assessor.
Jules is always open to crafting ideas and likes to take inspiration from her family and the natural world around her. She is an avid supporter of re-purposing and recycling and feels that fabric and textile crafts provide the perfect medium. She is currently designing a fabric portfolio.
“Crafting is a powerful entity bringing likeminded people together spreading positivity and wellbeing”.
