When I first got into making Evo loops I got to the point that I could tie the button knot without a 'cheat sheet' but after a few weeks my muscle memory faded and I couldn't tie one now if my life depended on it. But what's cool about the button knot is that the tails are tucked inside and no raggedy ends are flailing in the breeze.
