I’m so sorry total newbie here and I keep asking lots of questions. This time, it’s re pattern #26932, I’m making it for my little grandson and was wondering how long it’s likely to be when finished. I thought if too long I could start & end the pattern in a different place.

each pixel is a knot. You can measure your knots and do the math for that pattern. the dimensions are at the top for all the knots

You look at the knot for me 72 knots going down is about 2 1/2 inch to 3 inches for me.

you can center it by counting one pixel on both sides of the planet till you reach your desired length. A 100 knot bracelet will be any were from 7-9 inches, depending on how loose or tight or big your knots are.

Thanks @B_ridgette that would be very big for the little boy, I want it to measure about 12cms just over 4 1/2” so I’ll try and work it out.
