A whole new sweater! Easy mending


A friend gave me this awesome Kenneth Cole sweater, a cool emerald color, that was missing one button.
What to do when you don't have any spare buttons hidden in the seams?

I didn't like the blueish green flat shank buttons that much, anyway, so I dug around and found some brown woven leather buttons--the classic style.
I put four down the center front and chose not to add them to the pockets, like the original had in smaller scale.  I suppose I could buy smaller ones for the pockets, but I don't really think it needs them...
Hoorah!  A new sweater!
