Mending

Can anybody figure out what the little piece is? It’s made from scrap yarns. 🙂
First, I’m not crafting on purpose. When doing laundry, I found a big hole in hubby’s sock. The pair is still pretty new, hence I think I should do some mending. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the right fabrics to patch. Moreover, cotton patches usually make the socks uncomfortable.
Eventually I decided to make a patch by myself. ^^ There are some black leftover yarns which was used for Jenny‘s hairs. The color fits the sock very well. I crocheted a small square and the output is not soft enough. That’s why I choose to weave at last. I’m sure if it is weaving or not. I actually applied some techniques in Chinese knotting.
Anyway, I am satisfied with the result. And, E, too. ^^
