Cancelled: “Swap-O-Rama-Rama” DIY Workshop & Clothing Swap | Oakland

Please note, Swap-O-Rama-Rama is no longer taking place.

Swap-O-Rama-Rama is a nonprofit community clothing swap with a do-it-yourself workshop in which attendees explore the process of reuse and collective creativity together.

Every third Saturday of the month (except for May when they’re at the Maker Faire), they host a meetup where they encourage beginners to experts alike to come, bring clothes and ideas, and swap it like it’s hot. Share and learn ideas of how to repurpose anything and everything into clothing, home decor, and beyond.

Deconstructed Sweater | Cancelled: “Swap-O-Rama-Rama” DIY Workshop & Clothing Swap | Oakland

January’s project: Deconstructed Sweater

They will show you how to make a cozy pair of mittens, a hat and a scarf – all out of just one used sweater. Bring your own sweater (you know, that one with the ill-placed stain or hole?) or find one at the swap. The bigger the sweater, the more new stuff you can make.

For this project, please bring a sweater to upcycle, other clothing to swap, and your own creativity. They’ll provide all the tools and supplies you need.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
