For years, I did not knit cardigans for fear of ruining all my hard work with sloppy or misaligned buttonholes

Thank heaven, those days are over. However, that the buttonhole band is still a challenge. It is seldom that I pick up the number of stitches prescribed in the pattern. And when I run across the line "work  7 buttonholes evenly", I just want to pull my hair out.

I have a confession to make. I developed Interactive Buttonhole Spacer first, for me. It is the tool that I wanted most.

Once the stitches are picked up for the band and counted, I can open this sheet and within seconds, I have a full set of instructions for a perfect buttonhole band.

In addition to providing the numbers needed to work the buttonholes evenly, there are complete instructions for knitting the type of buttonhole you chose. The buttonhole methods provided are the one row buttonhole or the two row buttonhole.

The Buttonhole Spacer can be used over and over again. A friend of mine told me that this file will probably reside on her desktop, so it is always available.

Should you purchase Buttonhole Spacer, download and save to your computer. Once you have saved the template, then open it with Adobe Reader.

Basic Steps:

• Choose One Row or Two Row Buttonhole
• Enter the number of stitches on your needle for the buttonband
• Enter the desired number of buttonholes
• Enter the number of stitches you wish to use for each buttonhole
• Enter the number of stitches before the first buttonhole
• Enter the number of stitches after the last buttonhole
• Click Calculate

Scroll down the page. You will see the complete directions for working your buttonhole row/rows. Your buttonholes will be evenly spaced. Extra stitches will be distributed evenly before the first and after the last buttonhole.

You will never stress over buttonhole placement again.
