M1s often leave a little hole. The item I'm working on at the moment makes a little pattern out of them. I guess you could unravel and try again, or you could use a little yarn to stitch it closed at the end. Tbh by the time you've blocked you probably won't really notice it though.

You could try redistributing the slack across the row, by gently teasing the stitch next to it on either side of the hole.

if i can still see a hole after i have blocked it i just use a little yarn to stich it in or if it will bother you you can do it with the yarn left from grafting the crotch

It looks like a hole caused by a dropped stitch, but a stitch that was made when you do the m1. It can only unravel down to where you made it so you probably dropped it only a row or to after you made it. I would see how it looks after blocking, it will probably be okay.
