๐Ÿงถ DIY Crochet Patch Idea – Fix a Hole in Your T-Shirt with Style! Hello, lovely crocheters! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Welcome back to my crochet corner! Today, I’m sharing a creative and practical DIY crochet project — how to fix a hole in your clothes using crochet . It’s a simple and sustainable way to give your favorite t-shirt a new, handmade touch. ๐ŸŒธ The Backstory We had a lovely new shirt that ended up with a small hole (you can see it in the photo below ๐Ÿ‘‡). Instead of throwing it away, I decided to use crochet to fix it. I made a small crochet pocket using single crochet stitches and added an initial letter for my child’s name. To finish it off, I added a blanket stitch across the top and hand-stitched it neatly onto the t-shirt. Here’s the final result — a beautifully repaired t-shirt that looks stylish and personalized! ๐ŸŽฅ Watch the Tutorial Want to see exactly how I did it?
