CORDED BUTTONHOLES
Cording gives a reinforced raised button^
hole. It is excellent for use on bulky, woven
fabric, or knits in which the stitching often
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
buttonhole twist to use for the cording.
The turnaround buttonhole (page24), hav-^
ing the cord under the presser foot in su­
ch a way that the zigzag stitch covers the
cord. When pivoting the buttonhole, also
swing the cord around to follow under the
second side.
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 darn­
ing needle or needle threader, and knot the
cord ends before clipping.
