It's full of holes (3)

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'of holes' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'it's full' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'it' could be 't' (abbreviation. e.g. in 'tis) and 't' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ne' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?
