Moth holes? Pah!

Make do and mend

This poor cashmere cardi... not hand knit, bought in second hand shop in Aspen, CO, worn so much it got holes in its elbows... and now moth holes. But I refuse to give up on it, hence an attempt at steeking the arms to elbow length, crocheting an edge on to each using Debbie Bliss Silk, with a picot trim, and nailing those moth holes with embroidery flowers. I have amazed myself.
