Once a hole starts in a sweater, it can't really be 're-weaved'. Often it's a result of moths. One thing you can do to mitigate the hole is, either with matching yarn or thread, pick up the sides of the hole from the wrong side and simply anchor it closed. With a small hole this can be done so it's nearly invisible. With a large hole, yarn would be your best bet, but it's mostly about not letting the yarn further separate. It's not rocket science and something quickly and easily done while watching tv in the evening. Other than that, you might want to try the cleaners next to Chaucer's. He does tailoring and repair. Really nice guy.

My boss has a wool jacket that has little divets/holes in it. She was just asking if any one can do any thing for that. Any one know?

I second Art Re-Weavers on Valerio. They fixed a beautiful Alpaca sweater for me that I treasure for personal reasons.
