I make it a point to repair hip scarves after every class. I found that the best thread is the very thin one used to repair camping gear. It's thin but impossible to break with your hands. Unfortunately it doesn't come in many colours, but it's not obvious for onlookers, unless they come really close. And it can fit any needle and any hole.
