While hunting for 4.5mm DPNs (that continue to elude me), I came across a little box of my great grandmother’s buttons. I could bemoan how far we’ve drifted from such artistry, such care and attention to detail. But I think something in our very nature is pulling is back to it, albeit on a smaller scale. With each stitch we knit or crochet or sew, we’re intentionally putting care back into our clothing. The only question that remains: how best to honor these beauties? What would you make for them?
