I am knotting this bracelet: #59965 and I found it in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ciJDCk6zp4&list=PLxUc9zlQQ17d6-D6zPuit2uFS-vf8BMxr&index=29&t=407s
I bet I did everything like explained, but in my second part of the pattern I have a problem with the colors: https://s20.directupload.net/images/231126/geatr76y.jpg
What am I doing wrong?
And yes, I used 5 color strings an 5 black strings instead of 6, but this actually cannot be the problem...can it?
The first part was good, the first row of the second part is different (this may be because of 5 instead of 6 colors?) and the second row of the second part is completely wrong....but why?

To be honest, I cannot spot where you went wrong, but the different amount of strings shouldn't really have an effect in this pattern.

I think you might have done bf instead of fb knots and that's what caused the individual knot of the wrong colour, if that is what you mean?

If you did not do bf knots instead of fb knots, the knots might have flipped, because you pulled too tight when making the b knots.

@halokiwi: Ok, it's good that at least the different amount of strings would not cause this problem. So maybe I really did fb/bf wrong. My strings certainly didn't flip, this happens, but not so often. Hm... I will open the knots one more time and see.

I know there is a mistake in the colour order in the middle. When I recognized that, it was at least 12 rows later and I didn't want to undo the whole thing.

For me this bracelet really was tricky. You have to be very careful with the bf and fb knots and the strings you take. Masha said in her tutorial that this bracelet is easy... Well...not really. 😉 I never had to undo so many knots as with this bracelet! 😄
