... now I have a hole in my tshirt dammit!
Seriously, why do companies still add scratchy tags to clothes? If it's going to be this sharp and irritating, they might as well sew a thistle into the fabric!

@andycarolan Not gonna tell you that if you take up sewing, there's never any tags anymore... Nope.
Oops.
(But seriously, why do they make them so painful?)

@OtherRyn lol, I will definitely have to sew this back up. It's right in the seam on the side. And there's also another bunch at the back of the neckline. Why a tshirt needs this much documentation, I will never understand!

@andycarolan I’m with you on this! I de-tag and de-label whatever I can, and my little toolkit (for clothes) is a seam ripper, tiny “iris” scissors, and a Sharpie black fabric marker for embroidered logos that need to chill out.
I just have to remember to snap a photo of wash instructions / sizing sometimes.

@mattrambles I definitely need to de-tag more sensibly. This was a bit too brute-force tbh lol.
It had been irritating me all day.

@andycarolan Damn, that's annoying. I try where possible to only buy tees minus flappy tags.

I’ve definitely ripped myself into conundrums like that! It’s what makes plucking and snipping away so satisfying.
I wish I had an answer for the random haircut that leaves microscopic collar itchies. Those drive me bonkers and can last several wash cycles.
