Sore Fingers

MissLilith Skiller	12 years, 2 months ago by MissLilith I have a problem with my fingers getting sore when I'm making a bracelet. Is there anything that could prevent it or suggestions to stop them being sore?

grargh Skiller	12 years, 2 months ago by grargh Could be you're tying your knots too tight, or else the muscles in your hands aren't accustomed to this particular movement. Like Lyra said, breaks will help quite a lot, but the muscle strength and stamina will come with repetition.

HeavenSent Bracelet King	11 years, 8 months ago by HeavenSent My fingers get sore to,like the thread cuts into my thumb and finger I usually moisturise and then wait till it soaks in and that really helps. I also used to wrap a plaster round where it is dinging in so it does not ding in because of the padding on the plaster. I have heard their that their are these things you can wear on your fingers for bracelet making
Margaron Moderator	11 years, 8 months ago by Margaron Depends on what you mean by 'sore' there's skin sore like blisters and stuff and then there's like a joint/ muscle hurt. For the skin, I take a bit of a break, however I do a lot of string crafts other than bracelets all year round so I don't really get this problem anymore. Your skin will get tougher the more you make. The other, I do Some finger exercises and basically move my fingers all around so they're not constantly in the same position.
