The red arrow points to the button hole.
The green arrow points to the part of the placket where the button would be attached. It is attached beautifully, if I may say so, but it is wrong.
I would drop down to fix this in a heartbeat but for one small thing. I was knitting a faux placket because the hope, the plan is that this will look like a cardigan without actually being a cardigan. I am continuing to knit the placket stitches in garter stitch. I do fine dropping stitches, making the fix, and knitting it all back up when it is stockinette. I do less well when it is garter stitch. It is just fussier.
I am probably going to give it a go this morning and if that doesn't work, there is a good chance that my faux cardigan will be gone and it will just be an ordinary sweater.
This is no bad thing, just a bit of a small disappointing thing. It is well worth the attempt to see if I can salvage the original plan. Wish me luck.

I agree, picking garter stitch back up after dropping stitches has to be one of the worst tasks in knitdom. Good luck, if you haven’t finished it already!
