Make your own Yorkshire buttons with this complete set of five Yorkshire button maker looms, crafted from laser-cut birch plywood. Each loom is shaped like a cog and features 20 numbered teeth and a 3 mm centre hole, helping you achieve even, consistent thread wraps.

The teeth on the smaller sizes of the Yorkshire button maker loom now feature slightly rounded corners for smoother wrapping and fewer snags. Each loom produces a button approximately half the diameter of the loom, giving you a useful range of finished button sizes for textile crafts, garments, accessories, and decorative work. This may vary with the type and amount of stuffing that you are adding.
These looms are fully reusable, packaged plastic-free, and ideal for eco-conscious makers. They can also be used for making thread flowers or embellishing cushions, bags, jackets and more.
Sizes Included
- YB08 – 8 cm
- YB07 – 7 cm
- YB06 – 6 cm
- YB05 – 5 cm

The finished button size is approximately half of the loom diameter, though this may vary depending the material you have used, on how much filler is inside the button and on whether you have used a token.
