unstitchable
Impossible to sew
Something unstitchable cannot be sewn or repaired with stitches.
The term applies literally to fabrics too damaged or delicate to hold thread: The tear in the silk was unstitchable.
Figuratively, it describes wounds or divisions beyond mending: The rift between them seemed unstitchable.
