I’m crocheting the “flower power” bag which is in the freebie magazine with Lets knit July issue.

I am trying to find the Coats Glitter and Shell buttons.  No amount of google searches has found a stockist for these and on contacting Coats, they advised that their stockists are John Lewis and Hobby craft - however neither of these is close to me and they do not have this product on their websites.

Does anyone know of an Internet shop which does Coats Buttons?

Thanking you

Hi,

If you can’t find the Coats buttons, would something similar do?

Try googling “haberdashery” and loads of buttons stockists will come up.
