Hi. So I am currently trying to submit a variation for #43638. And the color order is acaaabbbdbbebbbaaafa. C, D, E, and F are all different colors. When I saved the pattern, it came up with a warning that "Top string colors don't match the bottom ones (2 strings)." How can I fix this so the top strings match the bottom ones?

For reference:
Top strings: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10Cz3RdVYeNOg-_oXv-2cVuGmqxBAPAL1/view?usp=sharing
Bottom strings: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16KiqRpvc5scfPQjkqq3qeY1QmNUY5KeK/view?usp=sharing

(Please tell me if the links don't work. Thanks!)

If you're submitting a variation and not a pattern, it doesn't matter if the top strings don't match the bottom, so you can submit it as it is 🙂
We just ask that the top strings match the bottom for the main pattern itself to make it easier for others to follow along when tying.

If you got way too much time on your hands, you can recreate the pattern from scratch (make it as a new pattern) and then repeat it as many times needed for the strings to match. The generator will recognise it as a variation, if you used identical knots, but this really isn't necessary. It's alright if strings don't match in variations. Your variation won't be declined for that.
