Full details
Designed for sewing enthusiasts and DIY crafters, these Hemline Basic Knitwear Buttons provide a reliable, vibrant finishing touch for garments and textile projects. They offer excellent versatility for both new constructions and quick repairs, though their specific 13.75mm size means they may not be a universal replacement for oversized coat or heavy-duty buttons. Each pack contains six durable, non-toxic buttons in a high-visibility yellow, safely stored in a protective clip-top case to maintain their quality.

FAQs
What does 22 Lignes mean?
Ligne is a traditional unit of measurement for buttons. 22 Lignes is equivalent to 13.75mm in diameter.
Are these buttons machine washable?
Yes, they are designed for standard garment applications and are compatible with regular washing cycles.
Are these buttons safe for children's clothing?
Yes, the buttons are made from non-toxic materials, though always ensure they are sewn on securely to prevent choking hazards.
How many buttons are included in the package?
Each package contains six individual buttons.
What is the benefit of the clip-top storage box?
The box protects the buttons from UV light, dust, and moisture, ensuring they remain in pristine condition until you are ready to use them.
Troubleshooting
Button feels loose after sewing
Use a slightly thicker thread or add a 'shank' by leaving a small gap between the button and the fabric before wrapping the thread around the stitches.
Buttonhole is too tight
Check if the button size (22 Lignes) is appropriate for the garment style. If it is, use a seam ripper to slightly enlarge the buttonhole or stitch the edges to prevent fraying.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality and non-toxic material composition
- Convenient clip-top storage box prevents loss and damage
- Versatile size suitable for a wide range of garments
- Resistant to UV degradation due to storage design
Cons
- Fixed color may not match every fabric palette

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply these buttons, use a sturdy sewing thread matching the yellow color for a seamless look or a contrasting thread for a decorative effect. Ensure the garment's buttonhole is appropriate for the 13.75mm diameter to prevent the button from slipping out. For care, always follow the washing instructions provided on the packaging; generally, these buttons are safe for standard machine washing, but turning the garment inside out before washing can further protect the button surface from abrasion against the machine drum.
