2
Lay the jeans on the table so that the hole was visible, and mark the outline with a size slightly larger than the hole (with chalk or in the eye). From a piece of denim, cut a patch in accordance with the agreed size and sewn it by hand or on the sewing machine.

Jeans at this stage needs to be turned inside out, i.e. the front side at the bottom, and in front of your eyes – wrong side of the pants and the underside of the patch.

Useful advice
If the hole are frayed places, threatening here in a tear, cut a patch of such size that it "captured" in this area too. And after the restored hole (i.e., its edges firmly tutu is to the patch), walk the line "back and forth" on these dilapidated areas. Then, your favorite jeans will last you even longer.
