Another one of the cool things about woolens is that you can use needle felting[1] to repair holes. TL;DR version, in felt wool fibers get tangled together, with a piece of fluff (aka roving) and a barbed needle you can tangle a patch into place. I have fixed a bunch of sweaters and socks by needle felting, even with pretty big holes in them. 1: https://www.thehookandi.com/2011/01/08/sock-repair/ https://www.thehookandi.com/2011/01/08/sock-repair/
