When you cut open a buttonho le it is importan t
not to damage the bartacks . To avoid this, insert
the seam ripper about 1 mm away from the bar-
tack. Now carefully cut the buttonho le open to the
middle, then repeat this from the bartack at the
other end (Fig. 1). If you have no punch pliers to
cut the eyelet, simply cut around the with a
pair of pointed scissors.
