Linen buttonhole with gimp thread

To sew especially durable buttonholes,
e.g. on sportswear, we recommend using
a gimp thread.
On elastic materials the gimp thread is
particularly important to prevent the but-
tonhole from stretching.
• Lay the gimp thread over the rear pro-
trusion A and pass the thread ends un-
derneath the presser foot towards the
front.
• Clamp the threads to the left and right
of protrusion B.
• Slide the buttonhole runner as far
forwards as possible and sew the but-
tonhole as described in the left hand
column.
• Pull the loop of the gimp thread into the
buttonhole and trim the thread ends.
