Day 123 : Reel
Today's button actually makes me think of strawberry laces candy, but as it could be made in a different colour combination, I decided not to go with that!
I've used the outer ring from the No 45 stacker mould, covered with No 8 perle cotton. This centre is a silk fingerloop braid - the "round lace of 5 loops" from my book Tak V Bowes Departed. These braids were known as laces during the medieval period, so just re-enforcing that candy reference :)
Size: 37mm / 1 7⁄16" / 58L
