I have a pair of well worn merino wool base layer bottoms that I am looking to repair. I want to know the correct way to sew this particular knit so that I can fix them without ruining the integrity of the bottoms. Thank you.
Questa è una buona domanda?

I wrote a step by step instruction guide to show you how to repair a hole in your merino wool underwear. This guide assumes that you know how to thread a needle and have, at the very least, some basic sewing skills.
This repair is specifically for the crotch of a pair of Icebreaker Beast underwear. This guide should help you repair any Icebreaker, Smartwool, or ExOfficio underwear; or any other merino wool gear.

Thanks Jason - SPOT ON. New LIFE to all my outdoor winter gear.
Jason...I need to shorten the sleeves of a SmartWool sweater. Do you know if I can do that, or should it be a professional project? Thanks,
You can shorten the sleeves two ways. One you can hem the end of the sweater by folding it in and using a catch stitch. Or. You can fold out a certain amount on the inside and sew the two ends of the fold together. Be sure the fold is equal all the way around. The fold won't be noticable if is taken where the ribbing ends and other kind of stitching begins.

I use wool felting to repair my wool socks and merino underwear. Works really well.

How exactly do you do that? Do you just sew a patch of the felt over the area?
