I’ve been making bracelets for a while but I was just wondering how long does it take you (on average) to make one bracelet?

It depends on the number of strings and the length of your bracelet. My favorite bracelet to make is 16-string Normal patterns... and one bracelet takes about 8 hours.

For me it depends on the number of strings. I have a fairly small wrist so my bracelets are only about 5-7 inches and a 12 strand takes me an hour and a 28 takes me about 3 hours.

I personally am very slow with knotting so it takes me a while to do my bracelets in general, but strings do have a big factor on the amount of time, as declared above. If you're not sure where to start try a 5-8 sstring bracelet! 👍

For me it depends on the number of strings and type but most take me maybe 5 hours. Lots of them take me longer because I don't have the motivation to make them all in one sitting.

As everybody said before, it all depends on the number of strings, on how complex the pattern is, and most of all if you enjoy knotting this specific pattern 😂
A regular 6 strings takes me 45 minutes, 1h for 8-10s, up to 8 or 10 hours for bracelets wider than 20 strings.

I really don’t know cuz I never make a bracelet in one chunk of time- I always space it out over a couple of days and sometimes take breaks on some bracelets so it really varies for me. Probably a couple of hours but idk for sure

If it’s a larger number of strings it takes me a couple of days but like under 12 or 13 strings I can do in like a day

For me, it depends on the number of strings and how long I make it. I like to make anklets as well as bracelets. But on average, it takes me a day or two. 😊

Obviously the number changes depending on the strings and the complexity but a basic 10 string chevron takes me about 45-50 mins start to finish.

Mine take me hours and I feel like I’m so slow to do them, but it’s just because I’m a beginner.

I usually take breaks so it takes a couple days for it to be completely finished but probably it would add to a few hours

It depends on how many strings and if you take breaks or not. If I make one with say 14 strings and don’t take breaks, it usually takes around 3 hours.

For me depends on strings! But mainly it can take up to two days if I really put time aside for knotting(:
