Hole in shoulder of a cardigan

how do I repair a hole in the shoulder of a light weight wool cardigan? The hole is 1 inch by ½ inch. I will have to create a decorative patch but I need to stabilise the hole first.

skopjar, double stitch a glue/iron on arm patch over hole, that'll fix it. :-) . Link below to various patches. Good luck.

I'd go for one on the inside and one on the outside. The outside one should make a statement like this, and no one will even notice that's it's a repair, just a statement: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/16225957550...

This one is more reasonably priced: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/27231849308...

I dont know @mayer if you use those patches with the way things are down there right now you may be making a target for a new hole
