@szarnosky I think straight-edge technique always looks nicer. 🙂 But for this pattern you don't even need to add extra string, you can just change the knots on the outside edges to be forward-backward or backward-forward knots instead. A video on pattern #23211 shows how 😉
@KoolKnots it could be easy as long as you know how to read patterns and you know all the types of knots. I suggest you try to make some more beginner patterns to help get used to the knots, Masha Knots, Alex’s Innovations, and Kinsey B Bracelets have some good beginner pattern tutorial on YouTube. Hope this helps 🙂
@katesmithy if you're good at making candystripes and chevrons, and also understand how to read patterns knots, you should be able to make this too! 😊 There are 2 video links right at the top of the pattern diagram if you need some help. You'll only get better with more practice! 😄
