I am using a large pink Clover (pic) shuttle -- with

Yarnplayer's Size 10 HDT.   Color Stardate HDT (so pretty).  https://goimagine.com/marileestatting/

over a 36mm acrylic button base

mini cuts/grooves that are awesome!

I am delighted to have a few extra button pieces to try variety of colors/fibers.  The pattern shows a completed button created with Olympus brand fiber.
