I love buttons. They can add so much to a finished piece.I was recently very excited to find this awesome button selection at Tangled Yarns
and couldn't help but get some for myself!
Both of these buttons are made from coconut shells so they are nice and lightweight.
This is a really good thing because if buttons are too heavy
they can weigh down your sweater or cause the fabric
to fold over on itself if left unbuttoned.
I love the way the cut out buttons look with my Tea Leaves Cardigan!
They are the perfect size too!

Now all I need is a buttonband for them!

Agreed- lovely!
I have a secret button obsession...I have a drawer full of them because I keep buying them but can't use them fast enough!
These are exquisite...and are going to be lovely with the cardigan. Can't wait to see the FO!
i've been thinking that my button stash is looking a bit meager lately, now you've inspired some enhancement for sure! your sweater is beautiful... my tea leaves are madeline tosh merino in dahlia; don't you think almost any of amy's colors would be pretty?!
best.
So the cardigan is finished then? Can't wait to see it properly! I love the buttons, they look really nice on the cardigan.
Ooh, gorgeous! I love buttons too, increasingly so since I've been on a semi yarn diet - it's nice to be able to walk into a yarn shop and not walk out empty-handed. Plus they take up so much less space than yarn - hooray!
Take care with the button band:
a) The pattern has the bands the wrong way round for a womens garment so make sure you do the buttonholes on the opposite side
b) The pattern only uses two buttons so make sure to add an extra if you want to use 3 buttons.
This is nice, I've got the same buttons on my winter coat! They look great and a lot of people tell me they love the look of those buttons.
As always, love your podcast and these buttons are just gorgeous!

Alas, no extra right now. But it has inspired an idea~ henna designs on wooden buttons. Thanks for the inspiration!
Super cute buttons... and perfect for your sweater.
Those ARE wonderful buttons! I used coconut shell buttons on a sweater for my daughter - it made it look much more interesting. I admit to having a slight button addiction too! :)
I enjoy your podcasts. Really have learned a lot. gloria
