Description
At 11 mm this button counts among smaller ones — that size you find over blouses, children's shirts, lightweight cardigans. Its surface stays plain, matt. Its vier holes sit far enough apart that ordinary thread passes comfortably.
Made from 100 % recycled polyamide — same button, drawn from reclaimed material. This button survives whatever machine wash its garment needs, never warping. Sewing several, keep your thread slightly loose: a small gap above fabric lets each button slip through its hole later.
Buttonhole size follows diameter: at 11 mm a hole slightly wider than that suffices. Test one over a scrap first, then it sits.
What Plastic Button 11 mm baby blue recycled is suitable for
- Children's clothing, because 11 mm never reads coarse over small garments.
- Blouses or shirts wanting a discreet button.
- Cardigans plus knitwear made from finer yarn.
- Replacing lost buttons over shop-bought clothing.
Frequently asked questions
Which thread should I sew these on with?
Ordinary sewing thread taken double holds over most garments. Jackets or hard-worn pieces deserve buttonhole thread, which survives considerably more.
How large should its buttonhole be?
Slightly wider than its diameter, so barely over 11 mm here. Thickness counts too: a flat button wants a tighter hole than a domed one. Always test over a scrap first.
Does it survive a washing machine?
Yes, plastic absorbs no water, never warping. Only while ironing, guide your iron around each button, otherwise its surface may dull.
Why keep thread slightly loose?
Because a button pulled tight sits against fabric, making it hard to fasten. Lay a matchstick underneath, sew, then withdraw it — leaving your button its shank.
