A Mystery and Resolution

The mystery: for the last couple of months I've been discovering holes in my T-shirts.  Little, teeny annoying holes right over the spot where my jeans button.  Loose T-shirts, fitted ones, new ones, old ones, inexpensive ones, ones I paid full price for - all of them!  It was driving me nuts.


I don't wear belts (usually), I don't always wear the same pair of jeans, and they were all in the same place on the shirts, so it seemed unlikely to be the washing machine, dresser, soap or some other general attack (and moths don't eat T-shirts, right?).

According to Google, the modern Sherlock's Watson,  it was most likely the edge of the kitchen counter snagging a thread or two when I leaned against the counter to do dishes or cook.  Indeed, my countertops are formica.

Solution?


The apron!
