    How to Fix a Snag in a Sweater or Knitted Fabric

    Materials

    • Clear nail polish
    • Sandpaper (optional)

    Before You Begin

    Doing so can cause the snagged thread to begin to unravel. Never pull on the sweater, either, hoping the extra thread will just disappear. Instead, correctly repair the snag as soon as possible so it doesn't get worse.

    How To Fix a Snag

    1. Use a Crochet Hook to Grab the Snag

      Start by inserting the crochet hook from the wrong (opposite) side of the sweater through to the front side at the snag.

    You can also push the snag to the wrong side of the fabric through a gap in the knitting by using a large, blunt needle. Be patient, and try
