@ArtKitten another thing, ratings mean absolutely nothing!! It's art; therefore it's subjective. I don't even think they should have ratings on here; what's the purpose?? People know what they like when they see it! It's not like Amazon where you rely on other people's ratings to make a decision, right??!! 😝😂
@ArtKitten Thanks!! I didn't even realize until just now that the Dec. Challenge pattern was the very first one you designed on here?! Even more impressive!👍😎🥰
And, @LoopyCat, I totally agree! (I do the same 😛) I was surprised that this was the pattern they chose for the challenge, not any of my others? My others aren’t that bad...lol. (P.S...our usernames are kinda similar!! 😊)
@ArtKitten I really enjoyed making this pattern. Its simplicity lends to its beauty! Too often I get carried away in designing wonderfully intricate patterns (I draw them on blank templates with colored pencils), only to discover that all those tiny intricate details get lost in the overall look of the pattern when actually knotted into a bracelet. The pattern as I saw it on paper just doesn't translate to a well-defined pattern when actually knotted as a bracelet. If it's too "busy" it comes out looking merely like a bunch of different colors scattered about-- like sprinkles on an ice cream cone. LOL 🙈😂 Sometimes less is more & simpler is better!!👍😄❤️
