A snap fastener with a prong ring that anchors in knitted fabric without piercing it. The size comes to Ø 10 mm. Inside the pack are 10 pieces. Produced from brass.
On bags, cases and pouches they hold a flap shut without anyone sewing where strain will later build. Before setting, look at the spot: two layers plus interfacing hold better than one single layer of thin cloth. Marking the position with chalk beforehand means hitting it exactly and unpicking nothing afterwards. The pack states the size, so buying more later stays easy.
What Prym Jerseydruckknöpfe 10mm Silber 390107 is suitable for
- Cuffs, hoods and necklines
- Flaps on bags and cases
- Alterations to finished garments
Frequently asked questions
What tool do I need?
Prym offers pliers and tool sets to match each size. The pliers work more quietly than hammer and anvil and hit more accurately, because the part sits in the insert and cannot slip while pressing.
Are they suitable for babywear?
Yes, that is their main field. What matters is a firm seat: a fastening that comes apart by hand should be set again before the garment goes into use.
How many do I need?
A baby jacket needs only a few, a long placket needs considerably more. Count one extra so that a test on a scrap is covered.
What spacing should I keep?
As a rule of thumb the first one sits about its own width from the edge, the rest at even intervals. Marking with chalk or a pen keeps the row straight.
