For this challenge, you will make a bracelet that is more difficult than others you have made.
Ex. Since I usually make alpha keychains, I would make a larger alpha such as a wallhanging.

It can be more difficult in any capacity, whether it is amount of strings, colors, more color changes, etc.

I will not be judging by neatness or photo quality. I’ll judge by how far out of your comfort zone you go.

🥇I make 1-2 of your patterns (depending on size) + rate 5 of your patterns 5 stars
🥈 you may choose my next pattern
🥉I love and rate 10 of your patterns 5 stars

All participants get a friend request!

Deadline April 19 (wanna give enough time to those making a larger pattern) and winners announced April 20.

Good luck and happy tying!

I’ll join w #46289! I’m gonna try and do an alpha tear drop loop since I’ve never really done that before.

Hi! I really like this challenge idea! I will do #116022. I might make a couple if that's okay? I don't make bookmarks/wallhangings very often, so I'll turn them into those! I usually only make smaller keychains with not a lot of color changes, so this will be pretty big for me!

@Yelena09 Great! Making multiple is totally fine. I also love the pattern your pattern choice, I am super into mushrooms & mycology.

I worked on my keychain pretty much all day today and I only have to finish the last “a” and the last flower so I’ll hopefully post a photo tm.

Here are some beginner suggestions:
#73842
#15234
#85509 (my first alpha!)
#34178
#1654
#87658
Some harder ones if you’re felling ambitious:
#79422
#28603
#106958
#113010
These are just some of my favorites! Hope this helps. Also, if you haven’t already, I would watch the mashaknots alpha tutorial on YouTube. It’s really helpful if you are new to alphas patterns..

may I join? I'm doing #165923 the first time I ever made a pattern with the intention of knotting it, the first triangle start on an alpha I have ever done, my first tide doing twisted ties, my first time working with metallic thread, and it is my first time I have ever submitted a bracelet in a competition (not this one, at a state classics convention) I've just started the 10th row!
