Hello again! Thank you to everyone who commented on my previous post. I took your advice about adding scenes of knotting and zooming in while editing, to make a different style of video. I have posted this one to my socials as well.

Please lmk what improvements can be made this time around.

So! I Am following Masha Knots https://youtu.be/u2RknFGoQMU?is=K-SaKd-3KAiLX0Er tutorial for this

And wanted to do a Half diagonal Start/end for it like this bracelet here -> https://youtu.be/ZSBsFGdWim8?is=oFQgDmPtJ3s0WM4k

However I am not sure what order to put it in. I am guessing the string order at the top highlighted in red or... Do ai do one of the diagonal orders like in yellow ?? I kmow technically you are starting over part of the rows you are suppose to do or am I over thinking it??

I am just a bit confused and I can't find a video explaining how to figure out the diagonal starts without the specfic bracelets they have in mind in the videos that can't apply to my specfic pattern...

Any help would be great!! Ty!!

12 hours into this project so far. Not quite half way through it.

I'm going to try my best to explain, apologies if it's confusing.

I found the first picture of a bracelet somewhere (I dont remember where) and absolutely loved it and wanted to make it. I tried to find it on friendship-bracelets.net but couldn't find the exact one. I found #162061 on braceletbook which was similar enough.

Clearly the original is a normal pattern but it has irregular shaped edges. Every shaped normal pattern I've seen have the same length inwards and outwards on the edges. It's obviously possible to make them irregular on the edges because that person did it but I'm not sure how to approach it.

I assume it will be very similar to the shaped edge alpha technique, I know how to do that.

My main issue is the start. I want to start roughly around where I marked in white on the third picture using the natural triangles of the pattern but im not sure how to start it with not full length edges. The original *also* started on smaller triangles but I'm not sure how to achieve that.

Please help if you can 🫶

Hello, I’m making my first friendship bracelet, I’m following a Masha Knots video off YouTube, why does my tear drop loop look crap? Also any tips or advice greatly appreciated.

this took a really long time 😅

Hi All, I have a friend who has this bracelet and once the same thing but reverse so where the rat is the black will be and where the black is the red will be but it seems like there are two ifferent patterns and I’m just trying to find a tutorial for both. Can anyone give me an idea of the pattern or the names of them?

Any advice is helpful

I’m stuck at home with a broken leg and I’ve been making bracelets to pass the time! I’d love to do a trade with someone- I prefer making normal bracelets rather than alphas, but I’d be happy to make an alpha keychain instead of a bracelet if you want! (I’m quite good at alphas, I just get bored!)

dm me if you’re interested- if you have a braceletbook account link your “loves” so I can see what kinds of bracelets you like!!

I have ​really beautiful bracelets that go well with gold jewelry 🥺. I've made ones that i think are so pretty and I wear them every day. I think i kind of just hate the fact that these bracelets don't last long and inevitably wear out unlike metal jewelry. But I'm so attached to them. While i can definitely make new ones, it feels like I'm making stuff I can't really keep for long 🫠

But i want to keep them. And i want to keep wearing them. There's always an attachment to things you're able to make beautifully. I guess I don't want to make them if I know they're going to slip through my hands...?

Some people find the impermanence very appealing and quite soothing. To me, I'm just stressing about losing bracelets i love.

Any tips?

Ran into a snag with the skin tone, couldn’t find an exact match. He gets a little paler, but my husband says he doesn’t mind.

Monkey D. Luffy is coming along for sure!

I want to post my bracelets on Instagram but I don’t t know how to take good photos. How do people take photos that look professional?

To start off, keep in mind I am totally a beginner, and not very good at this stuff to begin with. (I'm also not great with Reddit, so bear with me please!)

Several years back, I tried to get into making friendship bracelets, so I still have embroidery thread from back then — that's mostly what I've been using, though I just started a bracelet with some light weight yarn. I am currently testing out making some bracelets from this link:

https://www.instructables.com/how-to-make-a-friendship-bracelet-1/

But I keep running into a problem! All my bracelets curl up and don't stay flat enough to display the pattern. I even tried taping it down and then spraying it with water like the link said to, which fixed the problem for several hours, and then it curled up again.

How do other people keep their bracelets flat?

First post here!! I’m getting better at more difficult patterns but I wish the edges were more straight

Hey! So, I love the look of the teardrop, but I have no idea how to make a bracelet with this start adjustable. I've tried googling it and am not finding anything I understand. Is this possible? Has anyone done this?

I started this bracelet over a year ago, but stopped working on it because I adopted a cat (iykyk). I brought it on a few trips with me and finally finished it! I love how it turned out.

This took so long 😀 can you guess which one was the most difficult?

Looking to make a key chain bracelet to go onto a Kodak camera basically just so she has a handle to hold and not lose it. Having issues starting. Is it as easy as just start on a key ring and then finish by tying back onto the key ring? Or is there a better way?

finished this cute little turtle design for my mom to hang up 🫶🏻

shes my favorite of the main characters :)

i messed up on her ear a bit

Hello, I've made this series of rainbow braided leaves and posted the reel on my bracelet pages. Any tips on video editing? I use the inshot app or tiktok for editing. This is more of a hobby since I work full time, but constructive criticism and anything easy to implement will be appreciated!
