Find All the Holes on the Sweater
So.... find all the holes. Very simple, of course.
Cover the Holes With Patches
I bought a package of butterfly iron on patches and covered each hole with a patch. I thought it was appropriate and funny to cover moth holes with butterfly patches. All you have to do is follow the directions on the pack.
Wear the Repaired Sweater
Here's the finished sweater, with six patches altogether. Three are on the front and three are on the back. I really like the colors of the butterflies on the gray sweater.
