I followed the pattern and it works but I can't get my bracelet straight. It keeps on zig zagging side to side. I've tried tying my knots looser and tighter, I've also tried pulling all the loose strings as I tie the knots. How do you get your bracelet to be straight?
Love this tutorial so helpful! Every time I finish the pattern and begin to start over, my 2 left purple strings are significantly shorter than the other ones. So I don’t have enough to make a full bracelet. Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you! It is probably the way the pattern is unfortunately, you can make your strings longer before you start or another thing you can do it if you are doing a knot between two of the same color strings it doesn't matter what knot you do so you could do a forward backward to switch positions of the strings. Sorry if this is confusing! Let me know if you have other questions :)
you could add 2 more strings on the edges and follow the pattern the same but add forward backward knots on the edges, it's also called the "straight edges technique"
sometimes it can be hard to keep them straight, the more you do it the better you will get, but you can also try the straight edges technique I believe Masha Knots has a tutorial on it. Let me know if you have any other questions! ❤️
this was extremely unhelpful. some parts were easy to understand but near the end, you assumed the viewer knew what to do after and that was not the case. stop doing youtube. :)
Oh I am so sorry to hear that you didn't understand. If you ever don't you can always go back and rewatch certain parts or even message me. I hope it works out for you :)
@@IslandBracelets this was extremely helpful carry on doing what your doing I’m currently making one now I’ll let you know when I finish this, so far I have found this the easiest video and you explained the knots well in your other videos too!!!!!!

I didn’t know printed images like that existed! The visual is super helpful 😆 beats trying to memorize the pattern. Tysm!
Glad that it helped! the patterns images definitely help, especially when starting or with harder designs :)
if you want the tutorial to restart the pattern, the time stamp is at 1:18

I'd like to know the answer too! This is a fun pattern and a good tutorial, and I'd love to be able to do it right
btw the two blue/purple ends on the far left in the beginning position need to be longer than the rest, as it gets used up more than the rest! ^_^
this is literally the hardest thing ever
You can do it! Let me know if you have any other questions!
You are such a good bracelet maker! Even when I slo-mo the video, you are faster than me! Keep up the good videos!
thank you so much! and the more you do it the faster you will be :)
I love this bracelet, good job keep up the good work
Thank you!
You're welcome
This was really helpful thanks 😊
Of course! Glad it helped 😊
Love this tutorial so helpful!

i give up on making bracelets
first!!!!
congrats!!!
You are to fast 😢
Maybe if it’s too fast for you to follow along you could slow the video down to half speed? That might help
Odd to see a bracelet started on the right hand side. It's like doing the exact opposite I've been doing for a long time. Bummer.
where did the loop knot go in the end? 🤨
What # pattern r u using?
It is pattern #147 on braceletbook here is the link: www.braceletbook.com/patterns/normal/147/
What if you wanna make it wider? 🤔
you could add 2 more strings on the edges and follow the pattern the same but add forward backward knots on the edges, it's also called the "straight edges technique"
How long should I cut the string at the beginning?
You should do a wingspan length. I show it in the beginning and describe it in the video description
why is everything purple??
So I followed your tutorial but my bracelet is kinda wavy, edges are wavy and I even made it twice but it looks the same.
sometimes it can be hard to keep them straight, the more you do it the better you will get, but you can also try the straight edges technique I believe Masha Knots has a tutorial on it. Let me know if you have any other questions! ❤️
@@IslandBracelets thank you for your answer. I will check out Masha's profile. Have a nice day 🙏
I figured out what I was doing wrong, my knots weren't tight enough so I have finally made perfect bracelet.
omg me too!! But i love it tho 😂
;)
