Making Knitted Buttons

Knitting Button Covers
 
 
I made these buttons to go on an aran sweater. They are glass beads covered in knit fabric. Here's the process:

Knit strip (cast on five)

1)  Cast on five stitches and knit for about two inches.
 
 
 

A glass bead is sewn inside

2) Wrap the knit strip around a bead.
