i have a lot of leftover string from bracelets i’ve made and i have a pretty big pile of string that isnt quite long enough to be used for a regular bracelet, does anyone have any good pattern recommendations that i can use this string for?? thank you !! (:

rn im doing #120495, and it'd be a good one, there's small flowers that don't take up much string. Maybe #74028, some small keychains? try #96119, #118397, maybe #120964? Also #120816, #120794. Hopefully at least some of those help use up your extra. I might even do a couple of them 🙂

Most people use up bits and bobs of string to make things like rag-rug bracelets. There are many variations of this—here are some tutorials on them:

1) Alpha: The fringe-free rag-rug; Type 1: with the ends of string as part of the bracelet design:

Type 2 of the Fringe-free rag-rug basically uses the straight-edges technique, and hides the string ends the way you would when using the flat/clean-back alpha techniques. They look like this: https://tinyurl.com/cleanragrug

2) Alpha: The double-fringed rag-rug:

3) (Normal) 'Pleated' Rag Rug (basically, it's knotted like a Normal Pattern):
