Default Lawn repair


I know this has been asked before, but I want to repair a few holes etc in
my front lawn after having some work don on the house.
I remember something about mixing so many parts sand etc to use for the
repair.
Can I use any sand, ie builders sand or sharp sand, and what are the
quantities to use?

Thanks

ps
I'll print it this time

Why not just fill them with some soil taken from elsewhere in the garden?

or can you cut out the grass from somewhere else in the existing lawn were
it will not be missed and patch up your holes!
