The only practicable method of renovating a fur necklet that is moth-eaten in parts is to cut away the latter. Open the necklet, remove the padding or lining, and place the skin, fur side down, upon a table. Cut out the spoilt part with a sharp knife on the skin side, taking care to cut only through the skin and not the fur below. Now cut to the required size a piece of skin of the same kind as that just removed, place it in position, and sew it in, being careful not to catch in the fur. If a spare piece of the skin is not to hand, sufficient must be cut from one end of the necklet, thus shortening it. A third alternative is to make the necklet of a different shape, neatly joining the small pieces cut off: probably there will then be sufficient to replace the spoilt parts.
