The very first time I wore this little linen summer vest/top, my co-worker said "Hey, you have a hole in your sweater!" Ha ha, the sweater is made of holes! Turns out, he was sincere—I had snagged it on something in the back and ripped right through a crucial row. I've repaired it since, but I can still see the flaw, ugh.
