I fiddled with this, mostly in my head. I searched and searched through my books and DVD's, searched online, emailed my knitting buddies, looked at blogs and etc.
None of it was doing what I wanted AND to keep it simple. Too much ravel cord, needles in hold, WY, snipping, sewing and sometimes crocheting.
So, I came up with this...it's pretty close to what I want the end result to be. Simple and quick to do, tailored, lays fairly flat and no droopy hole. This is a combination of a gate peg bind off and e-wrapping.
Let me know what you think....

I think you should tell us what you did to get that nice-looking buttonhole right off the machine.
