The colour has been described as “Gold” but the real color of the button may be slightly different from the pictures shown which is caused by many factors such as brightness of your monitor and light brightness.

These Gold Knot Buttons are ideal for jackets, blazers, knitwear and costumes but are also suitable for all sewing, knitting and craft projects.

Shank buttons have a hollow protrusion on the back through which thread is sewn through to attach the button to the cloth. See our full range of gold shank buttons

Helpful Tips

How to measure buttons. For button size, please measure the outer largest diameter from one edge of the button across to the other. For domed buttons it is easier to measure across the back of the button.

Standard button sizes. If you’re creating a classic garment, there may be a standard size for the buttons you include. For instance, the average button size for a man’s shirt will have 13L (8mm) buttons on the collar, 16L (10mm) on the cuffs and 16L (10mm) to 20L (12.5mm) on the button placket. Men’s suits usually have a 24L (15mm) button on the jacket cuff and trouser and 32L (20mm) buttons to fasten the jacket.

Buttonhole size. As a general rule, buttonholes should be 3mm bigger than the button diameter.

Tutorial. Sewing buttons is very easy once you get the hang of it. It’s a very useful skill to possess, as buttons do fall off.
