@mialp26 I understand, I've never watched the show, but it is an eye catching bracelet. I think I prefer this version too, because extra fb and bf knots I added make more fun variations too.
@mialp26 Belly also seems to wear her bracelet fairly loose, It seems to fall 3-4 inches up her wrist when her arm is up. I don't know if that is because of how it is tied or the length of the bracelet, but that's up to you to decide for yourself.
@Traveler and I think I’m going to be fine making it, because i think i already made more complex bracelets than this one, since I know there are a lot of BF and FB knots which makes it a little bit trickier but not so much, since the pattern mainly is "made out of" the chevron pattern! I will post a photo as soon as I make it. Btw thanks so much for creating this pattern, when i saw it on the show i knew i wanted to find it on Braceletbook and i did!
@Traveler wow i wasn’t expecting such a comprehensive explanations, but thank you so much, it’s really helping me out! I decided to make the 14-strings version because indeed, id like my bracelet to resemble as much as possible the one belly had in the show!
@mialp26 This one has 4 knots of purple in the middle of the diamonds, the 12-strings version only has 1 knot. Looking at the promo photo, Belly's has 4 (this one) in the show. It just didn't register in my brain for some reason when I made the others that the inner diamonds had 4 knots. So this one is more screen accurate, but slightly more complicated (more FB and BF knots). The 12-strings version is easier and more straight forward, but not an exact match.
So the questions to ask yourself are: how much does screen accuracy matter to me, which do I prefer the look of, and what is my skill level/how much effort do I want to put into this bracelet?
I recommend starting at row 9 (where the red chevron starts) and ending at row 137 (ending with a red chevron) for this pattern because it will make a bracelet 128 rows long which should be long enough. And as far as I can tell, her bracelet doesn't have all the extra chevrons on the ends, I just did that for the repeat and if people needed to make it longer for the 12-strings version.
Belly's looks to have ties on both ends instead of a loop, but I'm not positive.
Does that help? If not, feel free to ask more questions.
Whats the difference between the 12-strings version and this one right here(14-strings)? I’m debating whether i make this version or the other. Do u know what version belly had in tsitp? Thanks!!
The pattern ends at row 144. If you want to make it longer, either go back to the beginning once you reach row 144, or continue to the end and start knotting again at row 51. I forgot to take off a repeat before submission.
