Place two stitch markers where you want to put the buttons on the buttonband. In the sample, the first button is .75 inch from the top, and the second 2.75 inches below that. If you are customizing the button placement, count down the number of sts from the top to first marker, and then from the top to the second.

BUTTONHOLE BAND
With RS facing, join yarn at right front lower edge. Pick up and knit stitches for the buttonhole band along the front edge, picking up the same number of stitches as you picked up for the buttonband.

Work 3 rows of garter stitch.

If you’re using the button placement in the sample, work as follows:
Buttonhole row [RS]: K until 19 sts rem, (yo, k2tog), k11, (yo, k2tog), k to end.

If you’ve customized the buttonhole positioning, work as follows:
Place markers to correspond to the marker positions on the buttonband.
Buttonhole row [RS]: K to 1 st before first marker, yo, k2tog (removing marker), k to 1 st before second marker, yo, k2tog, (removing marker), k to end.

Continue in garter stitch until buttonhole band measures .75 inches.
