8. Mark the buttonhole with pins or disappearing fabric marker.

9. Stitch the buttonhole any size you wish.
I used a smaller size (1/2") so it would stay hidden behind the scarf or if I wanted to remove the scarf, it is small enough to be covered by a pin or silk flower corsage.
10.Clip open the buttonhole.
