Need to stabilize a small tear

I had to drain and remove my new pool to correct an issue with the ground being off level. When I reassembled my pool, I noticed that in dragging it, it's got a small tear where it connects with the top circle of frame. It's not below the water line, so it's not a leak, I just need to stabilize it so it doesn't get bigger. And no, I'm not willing to disassemble it and return/exchange it. Took me two weeks to assemble, disassemble, fix landscaping, and reassemble.

I'm thinking duct tape, sideways as well as over the top, in overlapping layers? Picture attached, pool information should be in my signature. It's a Coleman Power Steel 22' by 52".
