Roxanne - Thanks for your videos!!! They're absolutely the best because you include a discussion on why & where the technique should be used.

I really like your channel. You explain knitting techniques thoroughly better than any I've seen. You also explain knitting itself and I'm so thankful that I've found your channel so keep up the good work!😁

Thank you so much for your video. I was struggling to keep my buttonholes in line and the way you showed is much easier than the way I had learned years ago. Really clear and helpful. 👍🏻

Roxanne-thank you so much for this clear video! It was just what I needed to knit the buttonholes in the ribbing on my Pressed Flowers Cardigan! I’m a new fan🥰

LOL read the title and it was like "Yo... it's a button whole!"

Thanks Roxanne. Your videos are such a great help always.

Thank you. My buttonholes have always looked like a dogs breakfast and it takes me ages and lots of changes to get it to look ‘kinda’ neat…ish but this is so simple and neat.

Excellent video and so clearly explained. Thank you. I’ve now subscribed to your channel for more help with my knitting techniques.

Excellent technique...Thank you.🙂

This is so well explained, thank you!

This is great. I don’t have much experience with buttonholes and I found it very informative. I’ve only done a few on cowls. I’ve made many sweaters but no cardigans. I’d really like to make one. It’s my goal. Luckily I have enough grandchildren so I can make a small one to start with Thanks Roxanne!

This is a nice buttonhole, but there are others! It's a nice idea to swatch ahead of time, to see which one you like best for your project.

Yes I totally agree. I’m all about swatching. Anytime you want to show us others I’m all ears. I’ve only done the thumb backwards loop or something like that. 😀

Thank you so much. It's really helpful.

Very helpful, thank you!

THANK YOU ! 🙂

Thanks

I was able to follow along with your video to make the button holes. Thank you for showing this technique. What if I have a 1 1/2" button I would have to bring yarn around the needle four times then ssk or knit two together. Then when I am in row two I would drop once then twice it will leave a longer string. On row three I would just pearl as usual under strings of button hole and continue knitting stitches as shown. Am I right? I like the 70's theme of big buttons on my sweaters. I did try it and my big button went through but I want to know how you would make the jumbo button hole.

For a larger buttonhole, you'll need to either do a standard vertical buttonhole (I don't have a video on this, sorry), or a standard horizontal button hole (where you bind off as many sts as needed to get the width you want, and then cast on that many the next row), or you could do a one-row buttonhole (also horizontal). I do have a video on the one-hole buttonhole: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lXmby6qKotXNXc4.html

Could this be done over about 7 rows knitting in the round to accommodate a huge button, or a ponytail if going up the back of a beanie?

Evette Larson did you work out how to do this over more rows? Am interested too

Dear Roxanne, your videos have been so helpful on more than one occasion. But my question is actually on the gorgeous cardigan you’re wearing. I’m currently searching for a pattern like this. Can you possibly tell me where I can buy the pattern?

Looks like I forgot to put a link to my Ravelry page in the video description. I made several modifications to the published pattern. Here is my project page. You can find a link to the pattern and read my notes, as well. ravel.me/Rox/mrc

Thanks for the great instructions! Would this 3-row buttonhole work for making fingerless gloves in the round? The buttonhole serving as a thumb hole. So basically a stockinette stitched tube with a buttonhole. TIA

You can, but make sure you are doing it wide enough to allow the thumb some movement. It can be quite a firm opening.

Roxanne i love your videos. I have a stupid question can u use the mock rib stitch to make ur ribbing band

@RoxanneRichardson

Probably. The way to find out if it works as you'd like would be to try it out on a swatch.

@@RoxanneRichardson thanks Roxanne it did work out n 100% i used ur ribbon at the back of the button side and where i attached the buttons for a stable effect.

Could you post the brand of needles you are using?

Does this work in the round?
