How to braid old-fashioned buttons?

The steps for braiding old-fashioned buttons are as follows:

1, take a red rope and bend it into two circles;

2, pass one end through the center, pass through it again, pass it through in a circle, and pull it tight and you're done. Pimple buckle, also known as button knot, is a traditional hand-woven craft with a long history in China, belonging to one of the Chinese knots.

These old-fashioned buttons are often used in the Zhongshan suit, which is an extension of the Zhongshan suit:

The Zhongshan suit, as its name implies, was created and designed by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, who is honored as the "Father of the Nation". In fact, before the revolution, Sun Yat-sen noticed the dress problem. He felt that suits were inconvenient to wear and that China's original clothing was too old-fashioned and dragging. Since then, he has been working on designing new clothing.

He added a lapel and four pockets to a student uniform that was popular among overseas Chinese, and this was the prototype of the Zhongshan suit. Besides beauty, practicality is one of the principles Zhongshan Zhong focuses on.

Mr. Sun Yat-sen once said that he reformed the pockets on the original clothing in order to make the pockets fit books, notebooks and other study and work necessities, and that the soft cover on the pockets was added to prevent the loss of the items inside the pockets.

The pants designed by Zhongshan Suit are: front open seam, with a dark button; left and right each a large dark bag, a small dark bag in front of the front (table pocket); the right rear hip dig a dark bag, with a soft cover. Such pants are easy to wear and are also very suitable for carrying essentials. The design concept of the Zhongshan suit was conceived by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and the planning and sewing was done by Mr. Huang Longsheng.
