Default Repairing tear in Classic Wing...

Managed to snag my DiveRite Classic wing causing a small 1" semi-circular
tear in the outer cordura material. Anyone have any recommendations on the
best way of repairing this? Should I just get my needle and thread out or
would a patch be a better idea? Is it worth doing it myself or should I get
someone handy with a needle to do it? (ie. a clothing repair shop).

Cheers!

Was it where the bungies attach?

And if Al can only break one a little bit, I'm sure gaffer tape will
be perfectly ok!

Classic wing?
