My last make of 2022!
I finished my #owligan last week, but it took me forever to settle on the right buttons for the eyes! The last photo shows the original ones I used from my grandmother's button jar, but I really didn't care for the way the looked. I wanted the eyes to be waaaaay more subtle than that. So I made my own polymer clay buttons for the eyes, and I'm much happier. This is such a heavy warm sweater. I'll be cozy all winter 💙

@lclarke522 @knitting oh my goodness. This is amazing. And you made BUTTONS. Lisa, that is sheer genius.

@juneg @knitting I make buttons for nearly all of my cardigans - I'm too picky to just buy them 😁

@lclarke522 @knitting And you can customize the color.

@juneg @knitting that's exactly it. I make colorful, brightly patterned buttons to sell, but for my personal projects, I'm all about solid color buttons that match the yarn and don't stand out at all 😁
