My favorite pair of jeans had a hole that started. At first it was small and kind of cool, now it is a long slit across the knee area (5 inches or so). I'm thinking about fixing it and trying to reinforce that area somehow so the other small hole doesn't stretch out (prob. won't since it's up higher). What are your suggestions for the slit/hole? I can sew them up but don't want to look like some little kid who's mom sewed up the pants he worn out. Is there anything I can do to make it look
@428CJ Really nicely done. I'm super interested in how you proceed for the hand chain stitch ? I've searched quite a bit but never found the way to properly do a chainstitch by hand. I've found the embroidery chainstitch but it doesn't match the originally chain stitch. I've trier both method shown on the bottom but I'm not a fan of the result. I've never tried with a double thread tho. is it what you are doing ?     Shown on the bottom how a machine is doing the double locki
