Prior to my currect machine I had a Hotpoint Aquarious Washer Dryer purchased in 2000 which made small holes in all our T shirts, if it happened to catch one at an outer edge it would often tear a whole strip of the material and leave the holey drum imprint on it.
I'm pretty sure it was a 5kg 1200 spin.
An engineer who visited for another problem told me it was common with this make.
