I'm starting to play more with variegated fibers and with the idea of offering "special" buttons as singles. One of the pictures shows this button with other buttons in this style. This is a listing for one (1) button.

One day during the pandemic, I was poking around online and came across pictures of a German/Eastern European craft called "zwirnknopf" - weaving handmade buttons from colored thread. Now I can't stop making them! To me, each one is its own little mandala, perfect for adding flair and focus to knitted, crocheted or sewn garments.

I hand-make each of my buttons using DMC perle cotton, small plastic rings and an embroidery needle. Also magnifiers and bright light! These puppies are small! The thread is very firmly and tightly woven together, ensuring there will be no slippage or unraveling. I make short, tightly braided loops on the back for attaching to garments. The few knots there are are also secured with fraycheck.

This button measures 1-1/8 inches in diameter. If you need more than show in this listing, message me. Or, if you need this colorway in another size of button, I can do that, too. Available sizes are 3/4-inch, 1-inch and 1-1/8 inches in diameter.
