What if Craftivists

By Fashion Revolution

1 week ago

We’re a group of people concerned about climate and the exploitation of the natural world. We’re concerned that governments across the world including our own, are not doing enough to safeguard our future or even our present. We know that many individuals and companies are doing their best to curb their impact, but the system in which we live is not geared towards sustaining the natural world, despite our complete dependence on it. What if…? Imagines a different world, a world that we know is possible. Craftivism is the gentle process of putting thought into craft with an outcome in mind … changing our world one stitch at a time.

    Opt out of the cycle of buy/wear/discard with Mend in Public Day!
    Join us in Hitchin town square for some gentle revitalising of well-loved garments from 10am till noon.
    Bring your own repair project, some sewing stuff and a non-disposable cup for a hot drink. None of us are experts but we're happy to offer tips from our own experience of hand-sewn mending, visible and invisible.
    We'll have an A-frame up so shouldn't be hard to spot - hopefully round a table at Cafe Air if we can get one. Looking forward to seeing you - all welcome expecially men, young people and people of colour! Viva diversity! Repair is a revolutionary act!
