This was originally published in my crochet blog (http://carol-mycrochetpage.blogspot.com/) from August – September 2009. There, the button was sewn on afterwards. Detailed directions of the button being attached are in a June 2014 post.

Gauge is not very important. It’s important only for making sure the button will fit through the buttonhole.

I’m not sure about the yardage.

Needed:
Terrycloth kitchen towel (The towel is cut in half.)
1/2” button

The gauge is 10 instead of 5 sts per inch
