Need help/advice on repairing a small rip in a shirt?

Last week I went on vacation. I got back last saturday (a week from yesterday). Yesterday I went to my friend's house to hang out for awhile. I decided to wear one of the shirts I got while I was on vacation. While I was at my friend's house, his pitbull wanted to play. I started playing with it, and it starting jumping up and rearing its arms up and pawing at me. As it's front feet were coming down, one of its claws made a small rip in my shirt. The hole is about 3/8'; long, and it runs vertically along the ';grain'; of the shirt. Its pretty noticable, and it bugs the crud out of me/makes me mad. I was wondering what would be the best/LEAST NOTICEABLE way to repair it?





Here is a (kind of fuzzy) picture of the rip:

Out of luck I think, you can buy patches that iron and or sew on and perhaps iron it on the other side. You can bring it to a dry cleaners and ask them to invisibly mend it, some places do that.Need help/advice on repairing a small rip in a shirt?
alright so the hole is not that big


all you need is a needle and thread


make sure that string matches your shirt


then you put the string through the hole in the needle and double knot it . Then you take the needle that is connected to the thread.and stick it into the shirt but on the side of the hole all the way to the other side the thread should be under.then you stick the needle to the other side you should keep on doing like a zig zag/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ then when you are done cut the string and make a knot so the stich can stay.
