How to use "Patchy" in context?
Patches are everywhere. The sun shines and knocks out some of our cells while rain droplets soften others. Weather can cause huge areas of our skin to become dry, cracked, or even broken. Things like colds, the flu, and eczema can all lead to patches. Some of our patches are small, and some are large, but they all share a common trait- they are uneven. Patchiness is a condition that describes an object or area that is uneven or has small areas that are different colors, shapes, or sizes. It can be a sign of a problem, and it can be frustrating to deal with.
