It&rsquo;s created by slipping extended stitches over other stitches, similar to a slip knit pass decrease, only here you are not decreasing. The final effect is a small horizontal bar that adds some extra texture to your fabric. It&rsquo;s a nice decorative technique that can be incorporated in to all kinds of projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This differs from the Estonian nupp, which is more like a tiny tight bobble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Video Tutorial<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"How to Knit the Estonian Button\" width=\"1020\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KlNt-X3R_6g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technique Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skill: <\/strong>Intermediate\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Skip first 2 sts, insert needle in between 2nd and 3rd sts on main needle. <\/li><li><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Work a st and draw a loop through, place onto main needle. <\/li><li><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Insert needle into 1st st, k tbl, pull st off needle. <\/li><li><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Slip two sts on main needle to working needle, pass the first stitch over the other two sts. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat steps 1 &ndash; 4 as necessary<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Swatch Photos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/nsad-estonian-button.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/nsad-estonian-button.jpg\" alt=\"Example of the Estonian Button\" class=\"wp-image-9103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/nsad-estonian-button.jpg 800w, https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/nsad-estonian-button-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/nsad-estonian-button.jpg\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Estonian Button is a cross between a smock and a bobble.
