Knotting on a desk, clipboard or something else? 4. When do you usually knot (like in the morning, evenings, etc.)? 5. What kind of starts and ends do you prefer making at normals? 6. What kind of starts and ends do you prefer making at alphas? 7. From how long have you been knotting? 8. How you started making bracelets? 9. When did you made an account on here? 10. Wallhangings or keychains? 11. Do you like a back of an alpha? 12. Do you like trying new techniques? 13. How long was your biggest slump? 14. How knotting improved your life? Anddd the last question: 15. What keeps you motivated to make bracelets? Thanks for putting your time in reading and maybe answer this quiz. Hope you have an amazing day! ❤️ |

I love this idea! 1. Both lol 2. Row by row! It's the way I learned and I tried to segment knot with a 20 string bracelet and I feel like it didn't turn out as nice 3. Clipboard with slits in the bottom for 14 strings 4. Usually the afternoon or at night before I go to bed 5. A braid and triangle start if I can 6. Braid and triangle start as well lol 7. Spring of 2019 I think 8. I had gotten a kit for Christmas with instructions on how to read patterns and make bracelets 9. Summer of 2023! 10. Definitely keychains 11. Yes, unless i seriously messed it up lol 12. Usually. But if it looks extremely complicated then I'll be more hesitant in trying it 13. 6 months or so I think 14. It has inspired me to be more outgoing and I think it has helped with some anxiety ~15~ the smiles I get when I give someone a bracelet. Just their reaction to a little thing I made with my hands is enough ❤️ |

1- both. 2- I only know how to do row by row lol. 3- okay the way I do this is kinda weird, so I take all my base strings and put them in a mason jar and screw the lid on, which keeps the in place really nicely so I can make tight knots and not have the strings move. Then for extra stability I put the jar in a drawer and close it as much as I can…it’s odd but it works lol. 4- whenever I have free time and feel like it, which can be whenever. 5- I usually braid all of them. 7- I started knitting in 2021, been doing it on and off since then. 8- a friend taught me and my friend group how to make them for a class retreat, and I really liked it so I bought some string and kept going. 9- February of 2024. 10- wallhangings take SO LONGG but are super worth it in the end. Keychains are nice too though. 11- no but, it is what it is. 12- yes! But I tend to give up pretty easily and it can be frustrating. 13- I think 6-10 months. 14- it helps with my anxiety a crap tone. It’s such a comforting activity to me, I love it so much. 15- the outcome, the beautiful designs people make and being able to give them to people and make them happy. Thanks for this quiz! It was super fun 😄

Both, segment, clipboard, late night like 1am, triangles starts and ends, triangle start and ends, since august 2023, I found an old bracelet from 2019 I made and continued it and I found it really fun and did research, I made this account in September or august 2023, keychains I am yet to make a wall hanging, Yes it shows my labour of each color change, yes but its scary sometimes, 3 weeks 😭, knotting gives me an activity to do when im stressed, happy, every emotion and it keeps me calm, making my bracelet stack larger!!

Unless I’m feeling lazy 13. A year or two before I really learned more than a Chinese staircase 14.

1. Alpha!2. Row by row! Segment knotting confuses me 🫠 3. So I have this flat piece of....I don't exactly know what it is XD It's supposed to go under my computer to protect me from the EMFs, but I tape my bracelet to it and do it in my bed😆 4. Evenings, but my work scedule just got changed to all evenings, so that may change lol 5. I haven't actually made a normal in a while! But it looks like a loop with ties at the end? 6. I LOVe wallhangings! So those starts with tapestry ends 😍 7. I FIRST started, like the first time I ever made a friendship string bracelet was probably....three years ago? But then I stopped doing it for a couple years, and then got back into it XD I'm a phase kinda gal 8. A friend who's a few years older than me, originally introduced me to chevrons and it bloomed from there 9. Just last year!! 🎉 10. Oh my gosh I love both so so much. But let's go with wallhangings 11. Why not! I don't really have much thought on it XD I don't notice it (; 12. Yep!! Soon I hope to learn how to make those bookmark ones!!! 13. I guess technically two years? XD But it was less of a slump, more of switching and dropping hobbies. But I came back to it so it's okay 😌 14. Well I've sold some! And it's great for gifting, and it makes me feel special when I finish one XP 15. The cute outcomes!! Also don't worry about the typo XDD If I'm being honest, I didn't notice till you said it 😂 😎 |
