I have a sweatshirt that ripped a pocket. It's quite comfy, but I don't wear it much because I always worry about losing something in the pockets. Today I decided to sew up the pocket. I also considered patching it but the whole was small enough that it didn't need a patch.
The whole was about 1 and a half inches long. Fortunately, there was some fabric material available on both sides of the tear and not just the zipper.
To fix it up, I decided to sew it like I was lacing up shoes
Pulling it tight
Completing the knot going the other way
