Roadside Repair

The other day I noticed that my sweater which I bought a few years ago at the market was coming apart at the sleeve. I guess that is why it was rejected by Gap's quality control. I was wondering how I would make it the next few weeks. I had forgotten to pack a sewing kit. That was solved today as we were walking to breakfast. We dropped it off on the way to breakfast and picked it up when we were done. The roadside sewing repair lady was able to do it for less than 50 cents. It is better than new.
