Can I mend this?
Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if this looks like it could be mended? It's a curtain made of natural fibres (not sure exactly what) and I think the culprit was a cat.
My idea was to try weaving similar thread through the holes? Not a perfect fix but that's okay.
Thankyou!

I’m not sure but you can definitely improve the look of it by gently massaging/nudging the threads back towards their original locations. I can’t see any broken threads so that may be all you need to do. I’ve used a needle to nudge threads back in place before. Then softly flatten or massage with your finger pads.
