Embroidery Buttonhole Stitches

Buttonhole stitch may be arranged in many ways to give variety in ornamental edges. The illustrations show:

(a) Dog-tooth buttonhole;

(b) Serrated buttonhole;

(c) Scalloped buttonhole;

(d) Fringed buttonhole.

In the last example the working thread is passed over a mesh after each stitch, giving uniform length to the loops. A netting mesh, lead pencil, ruler, etc, will serve the purpose.
