@Varda_Elen Another suggestion is that, if you use 6-Strand Embroidery floss, (meaning, each string can separate into 6 individual threads) such as with DMC 6-strand cotton floss, you can separate the strings into 3 or so instead, and that will make the bracelet less long 🙂 (less wide though as well). Tying a modified or cropped bracelet is also a good way to shorten it like @virgoasf said 🙂
@Varda_Elen definitely too long for a bracelet - it wraps around my wrist 2.5 times. I'd love a bracelet version as well! You could cut off the pattern and make the middle third to make it smaller but it might look incomplete without the full spirals etc.
@pe4ce I made 4 bookmarks and then knew quite well how much string to use. I made a comment but it got to the bottom of the pile of comments. Anyway, this is what I used:
I made mine with triangle starts and ends in yellow. I could use 2M for almost all the strings, except three. For the original design, I used 3M for white, 2,60M for the grey string in the middle, and 2,40M for the purple string in the middle. But that was just enough, I knot a bit tight, if you knot relatively loose, I'd recommend using 10CM more for everything except for the yellow. My left over yellow strings were always quite long.
Helloo, I love this pattern so much and now I want to try to do it too! Just a question, I would like to make a bracelet out of it, and not a bookmark, so, is 180 rows too long? Has anybody did it before with this purpose? Do you have any suggestion? Thank you! ❤️
