Insert the needle at the right end, with the point towardsthe sewer and draw it through but half the two threads at the eye and bringthem around the point from right to the needle out pointing it from^ thesewer, with the thread at right angles to thebuttonhole—thus forming a purl on the working one side, work several stitchesin the end forming a semi-circle where theshank of the button rests. Work across theother side and finish with a bar, which isformed by taking the needle down throughthe first stitch made and sewing it across theend three times. On this bar, work four but-tonhole stitches and fasten the thread on theunder side and run under a few stitches, thencut off. A buttonhole on shirts, shirt-waistsor any place where there is no strain on thebutton may be cut vertically and barred atboth ends. Sometimes a barring thread thelength of the cut is used instead of the running stitches. Onheavy cloth, tailors use a cord as this makes the edges
