While not a major issue, the neckline on my cotton Patagonia sweater is looking scruffy as the elastic has stretched and warped. It now looks all wavy as seen in the picture attached. Is there a way to make it look tidier?

Patagonia Shirt: Technique to repair a hole in a capilene shirt

Tue, 04 Oct 2022 21:12:28 -0700

My medium weight Capilene shirt has a burn hole, with a through and through hole about 1/2" and damaged material layer about 4x6". This damage was made with an iron (person didn't know shirt should not be ironed). The Capilene has 2 closely adhered layers of fabric and is somewhat stretchy. I'm getting a piece of Capilene to sew over the hole. Please advise the type of stitch to use to sew on the new piece of fabric.

Tops: Can I sell a shirt that I caught in a basketball game?

So if you are a basketball fan, you should know that if you participate in a live NBA game, some people will throw shirts to the audience. If you are lucky enough, you get to catch one of them. Well, recently in a Boston Celtics game, I caught a shirt. The shirt looks very plain and doesn't look expensive or valuable in anyway. Is there a chance I can sell the shirt for a good amount of money?

I’ve got a hole in a ‘capilene cool daily’ polyester t shirt, only 1-2mm now but will get bigger. If it was cotton, I’d just darn it with some thread, but the knit of the polyester is so fine and the fabric very thin, I’m worried a needle and thread would damage the shirt further. Any suggestions please?
