A bunch of my hand knit socks had holes in them, due to those pesky moths. After reading a bunch of posts on Ravelry about darning technique, I sat down with my needle and got to work.
Not great looking, but not too bad either. At least the yarn matches.
These socks were hiding in the stash pile, and had holes before I'd even worn them!! Luckily the holes were small and easy to fix.

This giant combination of holes intimidated me, though, and I haven't tried to tackle it yet.
It requires more than darning: cutting out the stitches and knitting a patch. I'm not ready for that quite yet.
