I have not found a way to successfully mend a t-shirt hole that is invisible. I have tried sewing a tiny pleat/dart running the stitches off to nothing on each end but you can tell it has been stitched. I have tried a small piece of matching coloured fabric behind the hole and darning over it with matching thread but it is visible. The best fix I have found is an appliqué, if it can go in a practical spot. There are just some spots on a t-shirt you just do not want to add an appliqué to.
