Simple text patterns aren't allowed, what are ways I can make one?

Basically what the title says. Between school, homework, and the difficulties that come with ADHD, I don't have the time to use the generator to make a pattern myself, and the effort I'd need to do that requires energy I don't often have because I'm a neurodivergent student trying to balance a whole lotta other things as my first year of high-school begins to wrap up. I really want to make bracelets with my pronouns (I'm a trans guy), short goofy words that are amusing to my teenage boy style of humour, and a whole lot of other ideas, but if I'm being honest, I don't know how to go about doing that without a pre-made pattern, and it doesn't seem like there's any easy ways to find ones like that. I could possibly try frankensteining letters from the alphabet patterns I find on here, but the thing is, due to the aforementioned ADHD, I don't think I'd be able to remember what step I'm on and I'd struggle to balance attempting to do multiple patterns at once, and I'd likely just end up stressed and confused. Any advice? I honestly am sorta not sure where to go from here at the moment. |

You could try to take screenshots of the letters you want to use from different patterns and put them together in photoshop or something like that so you have your own "pattern"

I agree with the previous user. You can screenshot the letters individually and piece them together. I'm also happy to help make simple name/word patterns for you. You can just message me. They can't be added to the site, but I can send you the pattern and you can keep it for your own personal use. 😉 |

You can create your own pattern, either on here or using a piece of graph paper. You then keep the pattern for personal use and don't submit it.If you do it on here, you can use "write alpha" in the alpha pattern generator. There are three pre-set fonts you can pick from. You can also use "draw alpha". Just because you are not allowed to post the pattern, doesn't mean you can't use the generator. https://www.braceletbook.com/create/ |

Ah sorry, wasn't fully awake yet when reading. You don't want to use the generator. I can only tell that using "write alpha" in the alpha pattern generator requires just as little energy as for example searching for a patter with the keyword "they". You go to "write alpha", type your word or words in "text" and click "save&test". That's it. You can go more fancy and select another one of the pre-set fonts. Or you could draw something in "draw alpha", like for example, if you need / in your pattern. But no need to do that. You can also request for someone else to design the pattern. They of course also can't submit it, but they can provide you the knotting structure, so you can copy and paste it into the generator for you to see the pattern. That's also very little steps: requesting pattern, receiving knotting structure, copying knotting structure, pasting knotting structure into "knots" in "alpha", clicking "save&test". Or they could post a screenshot of the pattern to imgur or something similar for you to see it. Then you can avoid the generator and have less steps: making request, receiving link, opening link. |

There are a few he/they (and they/he) patterns btwhttps://www.braceletbook.com/patterns/?keywords=%22he+they%22 https://www.braceletbook.com/patterns/?keywords=%22they+he%22 Do you have a specific font in mind that you want to be used? Kinda want to make a pattern for you since apparently I can't read and should just talk less sometimes. |

Apologies for the late reply, school was, well, school. Gonna just,,, reply to multiple users with this one comment 'cause that's easier than clogging this thread methinks@krazyknots @isabel_gw - Thanks for the idea! Honestly I might sort of consider something like that, 'cause while I am a bit apprehensive about Frankensteining patterns together for the reasons previously stated and that seems on first glance to be similar, now that I'm thinking more on it, I don't see why it couldn't work, so thanks! :] Also, in response to KrazyKnots in particular, I do actually really appreciate the offer, and I might take you up on it sometime lol @halokiwi - OH, noted noted! Being 100% honest, I didn't realize that was a feature included in the program. I might do some experimenting with that sometime, it actually sounds really neat. Also, no worries about the confusion, I completely get missing stuff like that when you're tired! Hell, I tend to do it extremely often myself, probably a bit more than usual considering, well, the ADHD and all. These sort of miscommunications happen, it's totally natural. You don't gotta make a pattern for me, but I do honestly really appreciate the offer. If you want to, of course, I do not mind, but I just wanna make it clear that if you don't I will not be mad (this is mostly for my anxious brain that makes me guilty whenever someone does something nice for me). Can't say I have any preferences for fonts, so long as it's something pretty simple so I can have an easier time at it. Alpha patterns kind of scare me a little lol (might just be the money needed to get that much string-) |

You could also do a normal bracelet. There are a few font patterns that you could use: https://www.braceletbook.com/patterns/?type=n&order-by=loves&keywords=Font+ But piecing them together I can imagine might be more complicated than piecing together alphas. |

Would this alpha pattern work?https://imgur.com/a/HCpOtVO Knotting structure for you to copy and paste into the alpha pattern generator: ---------------------------------- -b-----------b--b--b-------------- -b-----------b--b--b-------------- -b-----------b--b--b-------------- -b----------b---b--b-------------- -bbb---bb---b--bbb-bbb---bb--b--b- -b--b-b--b--b---b--b--b-b--b-b--b- -b--b-bbbb-b----b--b--b-bbbb-b--b- -b--b-b----b----b--b--b-b----b--b- -b--b--bbb-b----b--b--b--bbb--bbb- --------------------------------b- --------------------------------b- -----------------------------b--b- ------------------------------bb-- ---------------------------------- |
