Hi I'm making a repeating alpha pattern and was wondering what an average length would be for a bracelet? Some of the ones I've seen have been like 130 rows while others are like 75. All of my thanks for any help!

I think it depends on the person, for instance most of my bracelets I make to fit my wrist. I don't always make the full pattern, sometimes I find it too big!

Yeah I figured it was a matter of preference but I wasn't sure if someone had a number they usually try to stick to you know? Thanks for the response~

It depends on the size of your wrist, for example my wrist is tiny so i dont do more then 70 rows if i want to wear the bracelet ๐Ÿ™‚

Alright thank you! I was looking for more of a "will fit most people" kind of sizing so I think I'll go between your 70 and the 100 most use ๐Ÿ™‚

My wrists are quite small too, so I try to go for 50-70 but if I'm making it for someone else I'll make it about 85-100.

I would make the endings longer so that it fits smaller and bigger wrists too ๐Ÿ™‚

Yeah I do what adik said... When I make one for a friend I make it a little on the smaller side and then add longer ends so that it will fit smaller and larger wrists
