What’s your biggest pet peeve about making bracelets. I think mine is having to go back multiple rows after realizing I messed up.

@cassrose I’m a perfectionist so when it doesn’t meet my expectations it’s kind of annoying. Running out of string is another one, especially when it’s for someone else.

I do not like to take out rows in bracelets.

1) Knotted strings2) Starting the bracelet/keychain, and then realising I miscounted the number of strings I need (doesn't happen as much these days) 3) Unpicking a knot/knots after making a mistake 4) Realising that I made uneven ties 5) Running out of a colour whilst making a bracelet/keychain 6) When tape doesn't stick down properly 😠!!! The next one isn't so much about making the bracelet/keychain, but... 7) Unorganised string in organising boxes |

When I make a bracelet for someone and they wear it backwards 😂 I know they don’t mean to but it annoys me cuz the back always looks horrible for me 😂

I'm right handed so my forward knots are always nicer than my backward knots, this causes my bracelets to not be symmetrical sometimes and it drives me CRAZY!

1) when my strings get all tangled into a giant knot i spend an hour trying to undo2) when string companies think its okay to tie a knot in the middle of their skiens, making that bit unusable 3) when i spend half an hour undoing knots in a bracelet because of one mistake that threw out the pattern for the rest of the bracelet that i didn't notice 4) when i run out of string to complete a bracelet, for both normal and alpha patterns |

1. Starting a bracelet and realizing I didn't cut the right amount of strings. 2. Cutting the strings too short and either having to make my bracelet miniature or add more string. 3. Starting a normal pattern and getting all the strings mixed up. 4. Cutting string and realizing you don't have enough of a color you need. 4. Tape that won't stick properly. 5. Cutting the strings too long and having a bunch of leftover string that is too short to make another bracelet with. |

6. Getting the string through the hole when doing a button closure.
