A buttonhole is a SLIT in fabric that is sewn, usually with a LOOP of thread, to allow a button to be inserted and fastened. It is typically found on the LAPEL of a jacket or coat, the COLLAR of a shirt, or the waistband of trousers. To make a buttonhole, one must first cut a SLIT in the fabric, then STITCH around the edges to secure it. The French term for buttonhole is 'boutonnière', which literally translates to 'buttonhole'. Finally, an EYE must be created in the LOOP of thread to allow the button to be inserted.
