I won’t deny it, I end up making mistakes a lot in bracelet making. Could anyone help me with undoing them, so I won’t need to throw away bracelets with mistakes?

I just turn the bracelet over and gently use my nail to move the second part of the knot down, while holding the other string. Then again for the first part of the knot 🙂 and again and again until i can fix the mistake

I usually just use a safety pin and just pick at the knot till it’s loose enough for me to undo it with my finger, hope this helps! <333

I use a blunt-tip needle and my fingernails to pick the knot apart. It's pretty easy

I use a pin to pull the knot down and loosen it then its pretty easy to undo. using small sharp pointies is definitely the way to go, they have undone many a horrendous mistake for me

Using a pin and carefully poking the knot. Be careful because if you’re using embroidery floss it might fray the string which could be hard to work with.

I usually use safety pin or sewing needle, and carefully undo it to avoid making even more mistakes.

I always keep a pack of sewing needles on me when I'm knotting. Only thing is to be careful because the needle can cause your thread to fray which can give you some trouble with knots later on.

I'd recommend a blunt tip needle, like those used for embroidery. They have the pointedness needed to stick into the string without the risk of bleeding yourself in the process plus has a reduced chance of fraying your string. They're easy to keep nearby as well so long as you have a magnet/needle-minder or a string to loop through the eye and tie it to a clip you can attached to your knotting board.

I use a safety pin but you can use many things, I’ve heard a couple people say that seam rippers work really good but i have not personally tried that one

I use my earring. It's super convenient, but I have lost quite a few backings.
