                I snagged one of my flannel shirts the other day and pulled some of the threading out and I'm wondering if I can I possibly tease it back into the shirt or if I should just send it in for repair.

                Thoughts?

                  @bizbuzz you should be able to pull the snagged thread to the reverse side of the shirt yourself using a snag repair tool if you have one (essentially a miniature latch hook) or failing that a needle. Don’t cut the loose thread!

                  I was brought up in a multi-cat household so plenty of experience in fixing snags!

                          Very easy to fix. Grab it from the back and pull it through. DON’T CUT IT!

                            with all of the frenzy over OD'd UHF's, anyone else getting naughty thoughts about trying to OD one of theirs? Maybe OD in something like a dark red...

                              Well, my first self repairs. Sloppy AF but found it rather fun. Next time I’ll try and make things prettier.

                              In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                These “IH-633S - Self Edge x Iron Heart 21oz Selvedge Jean Straight Tapered” are my favorite IH pair. The cut and fit are ideal for me. So they ended up being my most worn pair since mid 2017. I’ve always had jeans developing their first holes on the thighs…mystery to me why that happens. Also happened with the IHs. Har these repaired locally about six months ago, so roughly at their 6 year mark.

                                Have a trip to the US in April and I’ll be restocking my IH pickings. Have quite a stack at HQ bulit up over 12 months now, but the 633s will have to come from Self Edge.

                                The journey is the objective.

                                  to avoid cluttering the other thread, does anyone know how a regular hickory fabric, e.g. IHSH-07, would take up dye? Would it be like this?

                                    I have a 5oz dobby cloth work shirt (358) that I’d like to try and get to a light blue. Think I could bleach it to get the desired result without too much damage to the material? I have never attempted something like this so all advice appreciated

                                      had problems with the slimness of the sleeves (again), so I got my 383 altered into a short sleeve which works pretty good for me

                                        @SKT why not just throw it in the wash whenever you put a dark load on? I'd imagine you'd have the desired lightening after 5/6 washes, without causing any damage to the shirt.

                                          I have an older one like that, tan/red. Mod looks great.
