The class, designed to introduce beginners to the needle and thread, caters specifically for men and covers the basics of repairing and altering men’s clothes.
‘There is a much more metrosexual vibe going on now,’ says Lisa Comfort, owner of Sew Over It. ‘Guys are seeing previously embarrassing hobbies such as sewing as practical and fun.’
