CORDED
BUTTONHOLE
Cording
gives
a
reinforced
raised
buttonhole.
It
is
excellent for
use
on
bulky,
woven
fabric,
or
knits
in whch
the
stitching
jltssn
gets
buried
and
makes
cutting
difficult.
On
knits,
a
corded
buttonhole
will
help
keep
the
fabric
from
stretching
out
of
shape.
Choose
a
heavy
cotton crochet
thread
or
button
hole
twist
to
use
for
the
cording.
Proceed
as
for
the
turn-around
buttonhole
having
cord
under
the
presser
foot
in
such
a
way
that
the
zigzag
stitch
covers
the
cord.
At
the
completion
of
the
buttonhole
snip
the
excess cord
close
to
the
bartack
on
woven
fabrics.
For
knitted
garments,
always
pull
the
cords
to
the
wrong
side
by
using
a darning
needle
or
needle
threader,
and
knot
the
cord
ends
