What is everyone's favorite and least favorite parts of making the patterns (Either the actual digital pattern or physical creation)?

Mine are
Favorite: starting the project after getting every set up (I'm a cross stitcher so this takes a bit of time & math) and making the actual pattern

Least Favorite: Finding references (sometimes it takes me forever to find a good reference pic), adding tag words (I don't have to reasoning, I just don't like doing it), and getting my cross stitch fabric cut and in a hoop (Way too much math and brainpower is needed and I fight with hoops too much)

Favorite part: For designing a pattern---when the whole thing comes together for a normal. For making it, when I'm finished and i can make the ties a good length because i didn't run out of string

Least Favorite Part: Not having motivation to work on a project, especially alphas 🫤

@favorite The 1st and 2nd repitition of a normal pattern, when you can rlly see how the colors work together, tying a bracelet on my wrist, GETTING COMPLEMENTS on the bracelet I'm working on at that time.
Least favorite: Actually choosing a pattern, and colors, cutting the strings, making loops, being 2/3 done an alpha

Least favorite part: setting up thr strings and doing the teardrop/triangle starts and loops
(I love organizing the strings and all but it takes forever to do so💔, on the bracelet I'm working on it took me almost took me 11 hours just to do the loops and organize the strings)
I don't really like alphas either honestly, I love starting them but I hate the progress of making one.

Favorite: doing the bracelets itself. The more strings the better for me honestly too. My motivation tends to be higher for bracelets above 45 strings rather then under 45
Also cutting the strings at the end especially after a huge bracelet, the relief i feel after doing so is amazing

I dislike cutting the strings and doing the loop with triangle ends. I love doing anything after that lol
