A Dorset button is a style of craft-made button originating in the English county of Dorset.
You will learn how to make a basic Dorset button using a ring. The size can vary from ½” to 3” or even larger. When making the smaller ones, embroidery floss can be used. For the larger ones, a sock weight yarn can be more suitable. You will also learn how to attach beads and embellish your button.
