Hi 🙂 So my wrists are kind of small (about 6 in) so any alpha bracelet pattern larger than 75 rows long is too big for my wrist 😞

Any ingenious solutions to solve my problem without making the pattern into a bookmark🧐?

-Thx 🙃

The only obvious solution I can think of is to take away any unnecessary rows, so if it has only background strings take those out. Or to just crop the pattern a little and not have all of the rows in the bracelet. If you want the full bracelet, try to just find alphas with lower numbers of strings.

I don’t have particularly small wrists, but I run into this problem a lot too!!! I generally crop patterns and take out any space that is just background, or if there is 3 figures I might just do two. I also will not use triangle ends or teardrop loops for these patterns, so the ends will not take up precious length!

I will just crop off unnecessary length in the pattern, make ends that won’t take up space in my bracelet. Pretty much what they said lol😂

one little trick i’ve tried before is splitting my string in half ( so that one piece of flow is three strands not six like normal) which makes the whole bracelet smaller!
