    Can it be done with that type of wool ? And where would you get the extra material. Way to time consuming
    Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
    teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

            Indeed, price is too high even for a cap in much better condition.

              anybody out these got a wool pz em/nco up for grabs. i'm trying to match, as closely as possible, the visor to a waffenrock i have.

                To the original question, a professional reweaver can repair the holes if there is enough material on the interior to retrieve threads from. A "fuzzy" nap would be impossible to reprocess, the more fine the finish the better the results. However "real" reweaving is very time consuming and expensive. I have had a couple of wool items repaired but the cost ran $100 for two small moth bites. Anything can be done but cost effectiveness is another question.

                A relatives cap, maybe. A collectible.....is it worth another $3-400 to repair?
