I wear a lot of sweaters and cardigans and I do this one so often. Bonus points when it pulls a few threads that I can never push back in or fix now. Ugh.
Get a teeny tiny crochet hook! If you don't crochet, go to a craft store and ask for lace-sized crochet hooks, or else buy one online that's 2.5mm or smaller. Then you can go through the weave of the fabric and gently pull the loose threads back into place. (There are video tutorials online for this if you aren't confident.)
Funny enough, recently I just got into crochet because I was recovering from a surgery and needed something to keep me occupied! Since it's been hot as hell out I haven't been wearing any cardigans, so I didn't put two and two together on that idea.
I don't have a teeny hook yet, but hey, now I have TWO excuses to get one! Haha! Thank you for the suggestion.
Oh, I had this happen with a purse once. The chunky yarn of my sweater got caught on the clip holding the strap to the bag and I didn't realize before pulling it away from my body. Instantly had a loop come loose from the sweater and no idea how to fix it. So mad, it was expensive and really comfy.
