I'll list three things:1. When a string snaps STORY: I was making a dovetail bracelet and I was doing pretty well on it. Somehow, my string snapped and I couldn't find the correct color so I tried to add one similar to it. Then, ANOTHER string snapped and I just gave up. The dovetail bracelet is still in my unfinished bracelets box 🙂 2. When I cut the wrong amount of strings STORY: This happened MULTIPLE times actually, one was with a normal pattern. I was counting out my strings for a really pretty pattern and knotted the loop already. However, I was off by TWO strings and had to choose a different pattern with the same amount of strings and colors. I hated segment knotting it but finished it. In the end, I got a fairly long bracelet but one I didn't enjoy much. 3. When people try to knot on my bracelet STORY: Sometimes I bring my bracelets to school (before everything else happened) and many people asked if they could knot a few rows. I was kind enough to let them knot on my sixteen-string bracelet (big mistake!) and the next thing I knew I found a ball of tangled string. I told them nicely to go away (they still got mad :/) and tried to undo it. Luckily, the damage wasn't as bad and I had thought and I was able to continue the bracelet. NEVER trust anyone with almost zero bracelet experience to knot on a bracelet you started. Well, those are a few things that get on my nerves in bracelet terms! Do you guys relate? |

@Seli I relate pretty well! I have NEVER had a string snap (I wanna keep it that way) but I relate with your last storie SO well! Although I just got into knotting before quarentine, I would still knot during school and in class. I would always bring a clipboard to lunch and eat as fast as I can so I can continue. This girl at my table (we have assigned seats uggghh🤮) asks if she can knot a few rows. (Back then I made only 8-12 strings) so I said “sureeeee I guess” not realizing what I let her do. So she ATTEMPTS though she has NEVER knitted in her life and gets it into this HUGE knot that I couldn’t undo. I later had to throw the bracelet out bc I couldn’t untangle it, and I was running low on string so then I was sad. Now I never let ppl knot my bracelets except for these 2 girls that I’m friends with cuz they make decent bracelets

I HATE it when I make a mistake but don't realize it, then after I do like a million more knots I realize that it messed up the whole pattern and I have to undo all those knots 😵

i am super impatient so i have no idea why i make these but sometimes i get bored of a super cute bracelet and i can’t force myself to keep going and it annoys me sooo much!!! sometimes i tell myself i will resume late but i never do, i have like three times the amount of unfinished bracelets than finished ones.

i hate when i get my string ready to start one and try it for the first time, or maybe i’m just trying my own patterns or something and then i mess up and cut it and then i can’t do anything else bc it’s too short.

Honestly I’ll make a complicated bracelet as long as it’s like under 20 strings for one of my friends for free but like random people being like MaKe mE oNe makes me mad

People who think making bracelets means I’m vsco (and sure I have scrunchies and OCASIONALLY put my hair in a messy bun, I’m def not vsco and pretty much every girl has scrunchies)

Also when people are like how do u do that??? What do u expect me to say? I say magic words and then do a backflip? It’s just knots. (Not saying it’s not complicate because it is for sure) but like it’s a bunch of knots, placing the knots and tightening and making patterns is the actual hard thing.

Ok so I sprained my pointer finger the other day and I have to have it in a splint when I knot or else I can't knot at all and the string is hurting my other fingers. (My string even hurts my fingers when none of them are hurt after knotting for a while)
