Merchant & Mills Polar Grey Cotton Buttons are available in 11mm and 15mm sizes.

Made from 90-93% cotton cellulose, 4-6% wood coal, and 3-4% glue, these organic cotton buttons have four holes and are fully washable. Produced in Turkey and sold individually. Because of the natural dye, colour may vary and could bleed after washing, so it's best to match with similar-coloured fabric. Shade differences may occur, especially between sizes.

Colour difference!

The colour of the buttons I received is much more of a light blue than the image on the website (which looks light grey to me). Of course, it does say in the copy that because of the dye, colour can vary but the advertised colour feels quite different to what I received. However, these are nice buttons so I will keep them for another project and order the darker colour accordingly.

Great length

Loved all the items I ordered from your shop! Thank you so much!

Nice light weight needles which yarn glides along easily. Sharp tip makes fiddly stitches easier to knit and cord length is ideal for shawls. Efficient fast service from The Needle Store thank you.

Convenient set of wonderul needles

I recently bought both sets of the Cypra double pointed needles and I could not be happier. They are probably the best metal double points I've ever tried, and that's not an exaggeration. Not only are they well made, Lykke appears to have put quite a bit of thought into the design. At least for me, the needles unexpectedly address the common grievances of double points made with other materials. They have better presence and body when compared to wooden needles, but are also noticeably lighter and more agile than the average metal design. This balance extends to their texture as well: the DPN's are super smooth and allow the stitches to glide nicely. But in contrast, they aren't annoyingly slippery either, having the needle get past you and spontaneously sliding off the knitting completely. This has been an issue for me in the past, and why I had started avoiding metal double points for my projects.

It may be down to the craftsmanship of the Lykke brand, but copper as a material for knitting needles works so well, it makes you wonder why it hadn't been tried more broadly before. The copper is itself beautiful and the "Goldilocks" quality it appears to impart on knitting needle functionality is surprisingly impressive. Totally changed my opinion on metal needles and - because I am a frequenter of double points - easily justifies owning the full sets.

Highly Recommend!
