Rules for Making Button Holes. 



1. Cut slit the diameter of the button to be used. 



2. First strand the button hole by taking one or 

 more long stitches to the extreme end of the slit and 

 back again on the opposite side. The button hole 

 stitch will cover and be strengthened by them. 



3. Overcast over the stranding. This overcast- 

 ing must not be deep or it will show. 



4. Take the first stitch by putting the needle into 

 the slit close to the end and bring it out far enough 

 from the edge of the slit to avoid danger from ravel- 

 ling. The thread must be thrown from the eye of 

 the needle under the point in the direction the work 

 is advancing. Turn the corners of the slit by placing 

 the stitches fan-shaped around the end.
