Now Here's Something I Was Surprised Not to Find

Believe me, I've tried to post. I have looked for the most obscure things over the last two months and found every last one of them. Who knew? And now my son's suit coat comes back from the cleaners with little round holes in the shoulder. 'I know how to fix that,' I think. 'This calls for French invisible reweaving!'

You can already see where this is going, can't you? Unlike
INVISIBLE REWEAVING (which turns up scads of Shroud of Turin references), FRENCH INVISIBLE REWEAVING turns up a paltry 110 links all referring to The Frenway System of French Reweaving by Fabricon, a perennial eBay favorite. I don't want the book. I want to learn how to invisibly reweave or even learn how to do French invisible reweaving.

Not online, baby!

I'm also trying to find this information online of how to do French reweaving, but I just find advertisement to companies that do it. Did you find something after you posted this message in your blog? Thanks!

By the way, I just found this article from 1961. Reweaving is a well kept secret, but I guess we can keep trying to learn it, but I'm not sure it will be easy to find online.
