Is There a Way to Repair a Hole in Cycling Shorts?

I think if you're hand mending, you'd want the least amount of thread on the inside, so that might make a difference on your stitches.

My experience with fray check is that it itches.

I'd either wear the shorts under tights, or got to the fabric store to find some lycra to mend them.

Can you use the stretchy serger thread to darn the various loops back together? The stretchy serger thread would have give that regular thread wouldn't. (for some reason I never saw the photo before).
