I'm still a couple thousands behind even if I'm able to get finished with the couple of patterns I'm working on. I have about 12,000 knots completed

I’m so sorry but I have to drop out ): i love the idea so much but I was in a slump all this month and started a bracelet only a few days ago so I’m very behind 😢 but I would love to be tagged in your next challenge please, even though I won’t promise that I can join

I’m going to be completely honest with u; I have been in a bracelet slump for the longest time and only got halfway done 2 small projects for this challenge. I don’t have anything completely done so I can’t submit anything rn. At some point I just assumed that this challenge was forgotten tbh and I rlly don’t know why. Probably bc I forgot abt it lol. Anyways if u hosted this challenge again I would definitely join bc I think I would honestly like to prove to myself that I can do 20000 knots. I had a lot going on as well bc it was the end of the school year for me which is also always the busiest in terms of schoolwork and I feel like I was focused more on that for sure. If u were to host jt again, I would recommend a longer amount of time for the amount of knots ratio. So maybe more like 4 months for 20000knots, but again, I’m a very slow knotter so I also wouldn’t take my word on that. One thing that I feel like would be very helpful for all of us and our time management is to let us know how much time we have left in the challenge as we go more often. Maybe let us know every half month or so. Those are some suggestions I have, and definitely let me know if u are going to do this challenge again, but for right now, I’m definitely going to have to drop out and I’m sorry about that. Sorry this is so long and thank u for hosting this challenge for us!

I really enjoyed this challenge, but I have been in one heck of a bracelet slump lately (sounds like I"m not the only one). I really wanted to get this challenge completed though, and I squeaked it out in the last couple of days! It was a good challenge and definitely enough time to complete it (would have been easier without the bracelet slump!). Finished at 20,926 knots! 🎉

Here is the list!
#28842
#150484
#25162 x 2
#10350 x 4
#2 x 6
#95344
#`67783
#76767
#109720
#74403
#152294
#147475
#147495
#25105 x 6

Thank you for hosting!

@Yelena09 @katdog1210 @Hugin @mishka0129 @Fizzah @eglaf @nincgc98
I really really hate judging challenges because it means I have to choose the winners, and you're all amazing.

@Yelena09 your creations are absolutely fantastic, as are your photos. You chose beautiful patterns to tie, and I especially appreciate all of the mental health awareness ones. I've struggled a lot there, and I love that you made the patterns and are helping spread awareness and prevention. I also love all your pride creations, they're SO CUTE! And the Lucifer bookmark- oh my goodness, I can't get over it. Such clean knotting and color changing and straight edges, it's fantastic. Great job!

@katdog1210 IT'S ALL SO CUTEEEEEE! Your creations are very clean, neat, and professional. I really appreciate your variety of alphas and normals, lots of people just have one preference and they don't usually go outside of it (I'm guilty here too lol), but you've done both really well. Your creations were executed very, very well and you've chosen a lot of fun patterns to tie. They were amazing!

@Hugin WOW. You are fantastic at this tying business! You also included a whole lot of variety between alphas and normals, and they're both so impressive! Your pattern choices are also fantastic, you tie them so well. Your straight edges and flat knots really caught my eye as I was looking through your patterns. Overall, fantastic job!

@mishka0129 your bracelets are just STUNNING. I honestly want to be you when I grow up the way you tie patterns! Seriously, they're so clean and even, I'd totally wear them all. Your color choices are all just fabulous too- color picking is hard, but you've got it down. You have done well choosing patterns that aren't crazy complicated, but look beautiful anyways! I really love minimalism with accents, so all the patterns you've tied with the accent colors on top of a black or white are super pretty. Great job!

@Fizzah Absolutely beautiful. No notes. Honestly, PLEASE post a tutorial on how to make the perfect alpha, because I sure do need it. They're so flat and shiny and clean and neat and perfect, and your colors pop so nicely! Seriously, I need to know how you do it. They're all amazing. Wonderful job!

@eglaf DANG. All of your shaped things and cross stitched things and embroidered things? Holy. Cow. And your bag thing, oh my gosh. I frequently revisit that picture, it's so fantastic. How much string did that even take? I can imagine you probably needed to buy a whole new package! These patterns are so impressive, and your photos are really cute! I'm also a huge tøp fan, I love the Clancy stuff! Great tying!

@ningc98 The rose. I seriously cannot get over the rose. It's just fabulous, I'd totally steal it from you and wear it if I could. Your shaped patterns are so cool too! The frog especially amazed me because I do not understand the tutorials or pattern at all, and it's quite impressive you figured it out. Your color choices are also so nice, I love how vibrant they all are! Lovely job!

So now it's time for the part you've all been waiting for, when I choose the winners!
Our winner is...
*drumroll please*

First- @Fizzah You did fantastic! I know I already gave notes, but your photos absolutely blew me away. The consistency you tied with was fantastic. Your photos were winners from the start!

Second- @Hugin I love all the photos! I'm not gonna lie, you almost didn't place, but when I looked at your patterns again trying to decide, I was amazed at how neat, skillful, and pretty your creations are. All of your work is just lovely, and I'm so glad I revisited your photos!

Third- @Yelena09 Everything you did was so creative! Your patterns have been tied so neatly and I love everything you chose. I also picked you for third last minute because I couldn't get over the queer bobas. Your colors pop so nicely and you did amazing!

Everyone else, it was still crazy impressive! I considered all of you for a podium spot and it's a shame you can't all win. Thank you all so much for joining this challenge! 20K is a lot, so make sure you brag on that enough to everyone. Rewards will be given out soon!
We did have under 10 competitors (meaning under 10 who finished, because we DEFINITELY had over 10 entries!), so everyone can get a custom pfp if they like. I totally get it if you don't want one, but message me if you do and tell me what you'd like!
