Blueknot

Heyo! Making friendship bracelets is my main hobby at the moment, I've been making them for about 7 years on and off. My first bracelet ever was a chinese staircase, I soon progressed to candy stripes, chevrons, wave bracelets etc not realizing that I could make patterns. Many years later one hot summer day I was trying to find a new technique to try and stumbled across a website that taught how to make #17932. I was more or less addicted after that! (I thought I was so smart coming up with segment knotting, not realizing that I could have just searched on YouTube and saved myself a ton of time)

My loves are patterns I have made or patterns I am currently working on (so I don't have to scroll through all of my to-dos to try and find a pattern).

34 bracelets, 1 key chain size alpha, 1 pair of shoelaces made in 2023 - Currently working on #144983, #145513 #139932, #60503 (clean back) and #143858-(1/8)

Currently having some mental health struggles, I might disappear and reappear randomly.

Hate is hate. People are people. No one deserves to be hated whether you agree with their choices or not.

I enjoy answering questions in the forums, feel free to send me a pm if you have any questions! I also accept friend all friend requests (unless you are creepy or something).

FUN FACT: I jump scare so easily that the toaster scares me most of the time!

That message about bullying that a bunch of people have in their bios? Ever considered there might be triggering words in that message? I don't have it here because of one of the words in it, not because I disagree.

What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth - Jesus Freak TobyMac

The best song ever written:
The Goodness - TobyMac & Blessing Offor

Huge TobyMac fan if you can't tell. Top 0.005% of TobyMac listeners on Spotify 2022! 15,763 (10.9 days) of my 76,947 minutes (53.4 days) spent listening to Spotify were spent listening to TobyMac.

You can brighten someone else's day! Rate a pattern 5 stars, love it, leave a nice comment. Kindness is important, we can make the world a better place simply by being kind.

Have a great day, and remember that you are special and unique, no one else is just like you and that is good. The world wouldn't be the same without you.

Don't Lose Heart by Steven Curtis Chapman:
"Another sleepless night. Praying hope comes with the morning light. Right now you're feeling like you've lost this fight. And fear is screaming out your name. When you say "God help me". You're wondering if He's even listening. So you don't have to feel ashamed. Let me walk with you through this valley. And tell you all that I've learned to be true. Don't lose heart, don't you dare let go. I've been where you are, you are not alone. I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard. But we're gonna make it home, so don't lose heart. Don't lose heart. Don't lose heart. Take my hand. And I'll show you all the scars from where I've been. Remind you how we both know this story ends. I know you'll do the same for me. These afflictions that are only temporary. Are gonna turn to glory beyond compare. So don't lose heart, don't you dare let go. I've been where you are, you are not alone. I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard. But we're gonna make it home, so don't lose heart. Don't lose heart. Don't lose heart. Don't lose hope, don't lose faith. Just hold on tight every promise God has made. You lose the fear in the light of grace. Just lift your eyes to your Father's face. Hear the song he's singing over you. Don't lose heart. I won't ever let you go. I'm right where you are. You're safe in my arms. So don't lose heart, don't you dare let go. I've been where you are, you're never gonna be alone. I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard. But we're gonna make it home, so don't lose heart. Don't lose heart. We're gonna make it (oh, don't lose heart). Don't lose heart. We're gonna make it (don't lose heart). Don't lose heart. We're gonna make it. We're gonna make it home. So don't lose heart."

I listen to this song on repeat, it's one of those songs that seems like it was written purposely with you in mind.
