I always dread putting buttons on. It never goes smoothly for me.
This time was no exception. First I couldn't get the buttons off the backing paper. I didn't realize they were glued on.
I knew it. I didn't get them evenly spaced at all. I measured. I swear I did. It's not really a problem. I never button up anything. They are really just for show so I can move them around if I want to.
Mugshot time. I'm trying here to prove it fits. It does. It's perfect but I can't get a photo that shows that and I took lots.
This one is better. It is very nice. Is it THE ONE? Maybe. It's wool so it won't be used for a while. Then we'll see.
For the record it is
White Pine and the yarn is Wool of the Andes Worsted in Persimmon Heather.

I think the buttons are beautiful and they're spaced just fine. I never button my sweaters either. Nice mug shot, it's good to see what you look like. :-)

Looks great. Very elegant.
ReplyDeleteHere's an idea: If you never button anything up, don't make buttonholes. Just sew as many buttons as you want on the button side.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I was thinking.

It looks great. I bet you're going to wear the heck out of it.
ReplyDeleteI agree, buttons are a pain but not as bad as ends. Call your spacing your special design element; they are fine! Looks warm and beautiful!
