Buttons!

Aren't these gorgeous buttons.? I exchanged them on the most recent alpaca neck warmer I knitted and it makes a huge difference. I actually love the fact that the buttons don't match, but coordinate. The light is a bit funky because I took this shot in a Boise hotel when I was there for meetings last week. The neck warmer is actually more of a deep purple, not burgundy as it appears here.

Great choices - it always amazes me when the finished object becomes a masterpiece with 'the' button(s)

I love buttons. They are so cute on this knitted neck warmer. Think how great that will feel in a couple months! Darling job.

I'm so impressed with your blog! Great pictures and descriptions. I'm a relative beginner and learning bit by bit. It's exciting to see all the things you can do with it.

Your patterns and work are lovely.

I am a button freak! I have sooooo many and use then regularly on my beaded jewelry for closures. Also have purchased a few handmade ceramic one's from another etsy artist, one I have beaded already, "IRIS".

I love finding those boxes of old cast off beads at thrifts and such. My treasure!
