What does "and then some" mean in the following sentence?
The inner fuzziness repaired itself quickly, knitting up the little hole poked through by his father and then some.
"and then some" is used when the action accomplished more than what was needed. For instance: in this context, it's saying that this "inner fuzziness" did more than simply repair the hole.
Hope this helped :)

It means "more" ( That's quite an unusual sentence. What is it from?")
