Ingredients

  • press studs x 2

  • coin cell battery holder x 2

  • denim scraps, embroidery thread x 4

  • conductive thread

  • wool roving

  • red cotton

Method

Stitching (hand) for conductive thread - running stitch

Simple circuit planning for switches

Woven wool rovings

Embroidery stitching - type of satin stitch in multi-directions

Use of sketching - important part of this process

Maker's notes

Solo process building on knowledge of textile techniques for clothes repair?

Plus simple soft circuit methods.

Would like to pilot with younger groups to see if it inspires interest in repair/skill sharing.

Outcomes

Very limited functions - how to extend or is this neccessary?

Extend thinking around end of life cases?

Unpicking and unravelling

Focus more on social sustainability, skill sharing, empowering communities to take action?
