If you are knitting, you can easily make a buttonhole, by deciding where in your body of your work it needs to be, and then simply bind off(BO). The transition back is as simple as the binding off, and then beginning to knit again, when you end the row.
Simply turn the row around, and then continue knitting or purling, whichever your pattern calls for, and then when you get to the bound off section, where your button hole is, become a button hole expert, and try the following trick:
Switch your needles from left to right hand, and vice versa. Then, cast on the same amount of stitches, and be sure to bring your yarn forward, upon your last cast on(CO) stitch, to transfer back your needles right to left, and left to right. Continue your purl or knit, and you have the best darn buttonhole.
