Can someone explain why the one buttonhole is spaced from the others?

I think it's called "spaz"

Hi,
This is such beautiful work, please could you tell me what thickness thread/brand you used for this buttonhole? I'm learning to make them from a book but I've found the gutermann silk twist quite fine for the wool flannel I'm working on, so I work quite tightly with the stitching to cover all the hairs but then it looks too strained...

Also... What does your reverse look like?: )

Thanks!
Anna

The precision on the pic stitching makes me happy to be alive.
