FAQs

What is the diameter of these buttons?

These buttons measure 17.5mm, which is equivalent to 28 Lignes.

Are these buttons safe for children's clothing?

Yes, they are made from non-toxic materials, but ensure they are sewn on very securely.

How many buttons come in a pack?

Each pack contains 3 buttons.

Can these buttons be machine washed?

Yes, they are designed to be durable, but it is recommended to turn the garment inside out or use a laundry bag to prevent surface scratching during heavy wash cycles.

Is the storage box reusable?

Yes, the Hemline clip-top box is designed for long-term storage and can be used to hold other haberdashery supplies.

Troubleshooting

Button feels loose after sewing

Ensure you have created a small thread shank between the fabric and the button to allow for the thickness of the knit material.

Buttonhole is too tight for the 17.5mm button

Carefully enlarge the buttonhole by a few millimeters using a seam ripper and reinforce the edges with a blanket stitch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of both the buttons and your clothing, follow these guidelines:

Attachment: Use a sturdy thread matched to your fabric to sew the buttons onto the garment. Ensure you use a thread shank if the knit fabric is thick to allow the button to sit properly.
Compatibility: The 17.5mm size is standard for most medium-weight knitwear. Measure your existing buttonholes to ensure this diameter is appropriate.
Care: While the buttons are durable, always follow the specific care instructions provided inside the packaging to maintain the finish and your garment's integrity.
Storage: Keep the buttons inside the provided Hemline clip-top box when not in use to prevent loss and protect them from environmental damage.
