FAQs
What does 22 Lignes mean?
Lignes is a traditional unit of measurement for buttons, where 40 Lignes equals 1 inch. 22 Lignes converts to approximately 13.75mm.
Are these buttons dishwasher safe?
No, these are sewing buttons intended for garments and are not designed to withstand high-heat or industrial cleaning environments like dishwashers.
Can I use these on heavy denim?
While technically possible, these buttons are best suited for lightweight to medium-weight fabrics like cotton or silk; they may be too small for heavy-duty denim applications.
How many buttons are in a pack?
Each pack contains 5 individual buttons.
Will the color fade over time?
The buttons are stored in a UV-protected box to help maintain their appearance, but general wear and exposure to harsh detergents can affect long-term color vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Button feels loose after sewing
Use a double strand of thread and reinforce the base of the shank by wrapping the thread around the stitches several times before knotting.
Button thread keeps snapping
Ensure you are using a high-quality sewing thread appropriate for the weight of the fabric; consider using buttonhole twist for extra durability.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable and high-quality construction
- Comes with a convenient clip-top storage box
- Non-toxic material composition
- Classic round design suits most garments
Cons
- Small pack size of 5 may be insufficient for full shirt projects
- Limited to one color and size option
- Requires manual sewing skills for attachment
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach, align the button with your existing buttonhole and mark the sewing position on the opposite placket. Use a strong needle and double-thread to sew through the shank base, securing it with several passes through the fabric. For maintenance, these buttons are durable enough for machine washing, but it is recommended to turn garments inside out or use a laundry bag to prevent the buttons from scratching against the drum. Always check the specific garment care instructions before laundering, as the fabric itself may require more delicate handling than the buttons.
