Followup question to Another survey--stupid

So then, how many have used appliqué or decorative stitching to cover
holes in underwear? I ask not because I really care about anyone else's
undies, but DH noticed a hole in mine and asked if I was going to stitch
it up. Personally I think it is

cheaper and less aggravating to buy new
ones!

That's exactly what I do -- I buy new underwear. I know some people like to
buy special, lacey underwear and have their favorites (my daughter is like
that) but I buy plain, boring cotton underwear and when it starts to lose its
stretch and developes holes, I toss it.

I have a friend whose mother in law told her she should be darning her
wonderful son's socks, so the poor girl tried but couldn't get it to work (and
she is a good seamstress!) So she gave up. I suppose her mother-in-law
deducted points for that!

Depends where the hole is, I`d think - could be darned uncomfortable!
