Here is that green thing I've mentioned...

(awkward looking pose to show cuff detail...)

Pattern: my own
Yarn: Elsebeth Lavold Hempathy

I came across this amazing yarn in my LYS awhile ago and I couldn't stop fondling it. You know the drill. So I bought several balls of it and had almost made it out of the store with them when I saw the most wonderful buttons I had ever laid eyes on. I have been on a quest for a very long time for a good dark, wooden, concave, large button. And there it was. So I put it together with the yarn and made this.

I think it works OK.

  4. I think it looks amazing - you did a great job highlighting the button in this project. The fabric looks wonderfully drapey - very modern.

    Home run!!
