Slow fashion in action

The average lifespan of clothing is just over three years, with just 8% of old clothes being reused, and 10% recycled across the globe. It’s time to check our shopping habits and spin towards more sustainable choices. Join the hands-on workshop where you will be taught an upcycling technique to breathe new life into our old clothes and embrace slow fashion.

Ýrúrarí, an Icelandic textile designer and artist, creates knitted works that blend humour, body movements, and everyday life into wool objects. She will teach you how to use needle felting techniques to repair and upcycle your clothes. Bring something you would like to work with, preferably knitted!
