I have a YouTube tutorial that is really easy to follow and I would appreciate if you could check it out and maybe subscribe? My channel is : lots o’ knots! Bracelets
@i_braclets I recommend watching one of the videos and following the instructions there 🙂 the pattern is not an accurate representation of what you need to do.
@megane17 MashaKnots gives measurements in her video on this pattern. I recommend watching it because the bracelet is knotted slightly different than what's shown in the pattern 🙂
For people who have made this bracelet before, how long did it take you to make? I want to make this bracelet as a gift, but I have limited time to make it, but I thought this bracelet would be beautiful, and simple enough for a beginner like me.
@lois2301 it's great that you are experienced with alphas 🙂 then I want to correct myself: maybe you could collect some more experience with normals before deciding, if you want to sell them or not. Big alpha murals don't really seem perfect for selling either, but maybe you could make smaller alphas to sell.
Did my comment come across as rude? If yes, then I'm sorry.
Based on your photo, what you did wrong is the chain part: you need to make the red bf and fb knots around both the yellow and pink string at once. It is not possible to show that in a braceletbook pattern, but the videos posted to this pattern explain it well. The pink knots for the petals in row 2 and 4 also need to be made around both the yellow and the red strings. This should also be explained in the videos.
@lois2301 have you watched the tutorial by MashaKnots? She explains it very well.
I saw a few more comments of yours where you mention your shop. I would recommend to first practice some more. You don't seem to have much experience with friendship bracelets. Maybe you discover that you don't really enjoy it.
