Sew Your Own Stretch Mesh Stockings: Overlocker Workshop

Sew your own stretch mesh stockings — a runway-inspired accessory made with an overlocker.



4 hours Class size 1 to 2 guests       £160 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

The class focuses on practical skills for working with stretch fabrics. You will start by testing different overlocker stitches and comparing how they work. This will help you understand which stitch works best for seams, finishing, and flexible areas.
You will then cut your fabric using the provided pattern and sew your stockings step by step. The main seams will be made on the overlocker, and you will also use a tricot stitch on the sewing machine where this gives a better result.
This is a fashion-led sewing class with a finished wearable outcome. Stretch mesh stockings are a stylish project that gives you hands-on experience with delicate stretch fabric, overlocker settings, accurate cutting, close-fitting seams, and clean finishing.
