Gina Barrett shows you how to make 64 stunning zwirnknopf buttons using both traditional and modern techniques in this comprehensive guide

While similar to the Dorset ring button, these use a different technique, and this difference creates an easy way to add color to the designs, despite the originals having been worked in white. The striking and colorful geometric styles of these buttons will cheer any garment! There are both traditional and modern designs, as well as variation & finishing ideas included.
