Hi so i had an idea for a bracelet and i put it into other and it got a bit of attention so I thought i’d hold a challenge for it! (to see the original topic: https://www.braceletbook.com/forum/8_other/35421_temperature-bracelet-for-school-idea/#502499 ) But basically it’s a temperature scarf as a bracelet and because it’s a bit far away from the beginning of the year but it is close to the start of the school year! I counted my average amount of rows per bracelet and it’s roughly a hundred and some cents. There are 36 weeks in a school year (5 day weeks) and 36 times 3 is 108 so if I did 3 rows a week I would get a bracelet by the end of the year! Now you can do it for either average temperature or mood (happy, sad, excited, nervous) and you can do alpha or normal (I’m doing a rag rug cuz it seems like it will be the easiest way to do the rows but it’s up to you) if you do an alpha u could even add a design going on top of the rows! So now that you know the premise for the bracelet here are the rules: I need to know what kind of bracelet your doing (alpha or normal, temperature or mood) I’m going to remind everyone once a month and check their progress and you can get your monthly prizes (to show it your going to temporarily set a photo of your progress as your pfp) I need to also know your color code for emotions/temperatures I need to know your school start and end dates. The prizes: Every month: Neatest knots! (5 stars on 5 patterns) Best month! (5 stars on 3 patterns, determined by either best weather or most happy) Most exciting month! (5 stars on 4 patterns, Most dramatic weather or exciting moods) Year: Most creative design! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns) Most exciting year! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns) Best year! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns) Best comeback! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns, you had a bad start with weather/mood but then it got a lot better!) Neatest Knots! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns) Most improvement! (5 stars on 10 patterns, Loves on 5 patterns, and I make one of your patterns, started with bad knots but became much better later on) I *might* add more later on but for now that’s pretty much all I can think of lol Due date: TBD (depends on when people’s school years end) If i’m missing something PLEASE LET ME KNOW Even if you don’t wanna be competitive and you just want to join so you have something to remind you cuz u like this idea go right ahead! If you want to vary the concept a little (maybe do something different then mood or temperature) but still participate just let me know how you want to vary it and you will probably be good! Everyone who showed interest in the original post: @str6yk1ds @PurpleRed @Arkengheis @Cow28 @anne7 @violasrule Happy school year all! |

You know what, I really like the idea of doing it in a challenge for motivation to actually do it 😄 I wanna do weather, but a little different, here's what I was thinking : - i'd like to record high temp, low temp and rain - there's 365 days in a full year (i'd like to get to the summer temperatures 😄) -> so that's 1095 knots to record. If i do a 15 strings alpha, I can do low temp on the first 5 rows, rain on the 5 next, and high temp on the last 5, for 73 rows, and that gives me a 13,5 cm long creation. The thing is that I like my bracelets less thick, so I was thinking of making a keychain cause that's pretty good dimensions for it 🙂 I need to define my colors exactly, but i'll do a blue to yellow to red gradient for the temperatures, and a greyscale gradient for the rain temps: < -5°C dark blue -5 to 0 less dark blue 0 to 5 mid blue 5 to 10 light blue 10 to 15 very light blue 15 to 20 light yellow 20 to 25 yellow 25 to 30 light orange 30 to 35 dark orange 35 to 40 red > 40°C burgundy rain: 0 mm white 1 à 5 light grey 5 à 20 mid grey 20 à 40 dark grey 40 mm + black I'm not in school anymore, but school usually starts september 1st here so that's when i'll start ! |

So just to clarify we do 3 rows a week, so like 3 mood/temperature checks a week, and we start from the first day of the school year up to the end? Please tell me if that’s correct and if I’m missing something lol

@Arkengheis i’m a little confused. So first if you want to include summer temps are you gonna go a full calendar year from when school starts in your area? or??? Also so are you going to be highlighting ur like lowest and highest and rainiest days in a month or like those highlights for the full year?

@str6yk1ds yup! for me (school started last week so i already have 3 rows done) i’m doing like my overall emotions that week and im doing 3 different ones, last week was nostalgic, nervous, and excited but you could do like a row on monday a row on wednesday and a row on friday or you could do like your overall mood for the week. up to you!

Sorry, i figured it might not have been super clear 🙂 I'll do 3 knots for every day, for the high temp, low temp and rain. I want to do a full year, from september 1st to august 31st, but you can totally stop the challenge before ! I made a little drawing : https://freeimage.host/i/dVnLeY7

Ok, thank you so much! I wanted to do temperature, so I’ll start on sept 1st since that’s when my first day of school is, here’s my color code (in Celsius)(Anything below 0) - navy blue ( 1 - 5) - dark blue (6 - 10) - blue (11 - 15) - light blue (16 - 20) - greenish blue (21 - 25) - light green (26 - 30) - green (30 - 35) - lime-ish color (36 - 40) - yellow (41 - 45) - darker yellow (46 - 50) - orange (51+) - red Does that work? |

This is awesome that this is a challenge! And perfect timing since school starts tomorrow (August 21st) for me and ends early June. I'll do an alpha mood bracelet, and add a design of #79812 on top. I'll probably just do 2 rows a week so that it's not too long for me to wear comfortably on my wrist, though. But I will try to split the rows up to identify each particular day... so each row will alternate being split into thirds then split into halves (if that makes sense, kinda like bricks) (and yes I know the alpha design I chose is only 8 wide, but I'm just going to add a bonus row on top) Here's my color code: ❤️ - Angry, upset, etc. 🧡 - Nostalgic 💛 - Happy, joyful, etc 💚 - Envious, jealous, etc. 💙 - Sad, depressed, etc 💜 - Nervous, anxious, etc 💖 - Combination of multiples above/all/i don't know how to feel I hope this works 🙂 |

@Arkengheis that makes more sense, sounds great! But for the end of year awards I will be basing it off your progress at the end of the school year not the end of the year year to make it fair for the others.

I was also wondering if instead of three rows a week I could do one row a day (4 knots wide), it will probably get too long to be a bracelet but I was thinking I could hang it on my wall or smth at the end of the year (:
