What helps after the last step 14 is to wrap the thread around and around a few times underneath the button itself (binding all the threads together) and making one last pass through the cloth before the final knot. This makes the repair much more durable.

The wrapping below the button is not only more durable, but is actually frequently used when replacing buttons on blazers, sport coats, and the like as a protection from friction as the garment moves and shifts while being worn.

Matt - Yanıt

Wrapping the threads underneath the button to create a shank is useful for coat buttons where the fabric is thick and you don’t want the fabric to pucker. As noted, it adds durability to the button attachment. On a shirt collar, as seen here, it would create too much bulk where you need the button to lie quite flat, so this method is quite sufficient.
