Weekly Contest #106 - Friday September 12th - 19th by Sammoning (moderator) 9 years ago

~ For these weekly contests a fairly old, photo less pattern will be chosen, and you guys can come up with a new color scheme for it. Pick the colors you think look best, make the bracelet, and upload a picture to the pattern. The moderators will then vote for the best bracelet.

Right now the only prize for the winner is that the colors of the pattern will be changed according to the winning bracelet - and, of course, the recognition and adoration of your peers and moderators for having a great eye for colors, and being an exceptionally good knotter.

* Please note that you may change the position and distribution of colours, but not the knotting structure itself to participate *

** And an extra note for this week's pattern is about the border. There is a 1 string border in color A on each side; you are allowed to modify this border and turn it into 2 strings, or by using color B for them and making normal forward knots (or on the right side, backward knots). If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to put them in the comments.**

~This week's pattern is #26763


~If you need some outside help with colors, you're welcome to use colourlovers.com or colorschemedesigner.com
~To post pictures with a higher quality, resize to around 500 pixels wide and use the flash uploader, located at the top of the normal uploader page.
~Try getting your pictures in by Friday, since the mods will be voting on Saturday. The new contest will be posted on Friday.
~Make your bracelet with whatever materials you want! You can even include beads or metallic thread - it's yours to keep. However, the extra things won't get you extra points.
~You may submit as many photos as you like, but it must be a different bracelet per photo. Collages are okay for different angles and views of your bracelet. Presentation counts, though! A bracelet with a nice in focus photo and finished ends will be much more likely to win than a blurry dark picture of part of a bracelet.

~~To all of you, good luck and ofcourse have fun! :)

I have some color-schemes in mind, but I hope I've time to knot them..... If not this week, I will make them later for sure! I like this pattern!

This is such a beautiful pattern!! I love it so much. I really hope I can do this one.

I'm really looking forward to the entries :) I do wonder what it looks like in different and lighter colors.

The weekly patterns seem to be coming thick and fast lately...

It would really help if they could start and end one after another, instead of overlapping. The last one ended 13th Sept, this one started 12th Sept.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to complete each one in time, and I really would like to participate every week :( I know the mods have a lot of work.

Nah they are still running from friday to friday as usual. Last week was an inevitable exception.. it started on saturday so we agreed it would only be fair to keep it going till saturday. But the friday routine had to go on as well, we're just back on track now.
We still try to vary the string amount a lot as well, last week had 10 strings so I wnt for a bit wider pattern, and it can also be made smaller by leaving out the border.

I'm sorry :( I just feel slow at knotting when I can't keep up :(

RE: Weekly Contest #106 - Friday September 12th - 19th by Sammoning (moderator) 9 years ago

It's not just you though, elizabeth, I remember how much effort it was sometimes to make even 1 contest bracelet, I have a hard time understanding how people make so much of them. Now I have to combine knotting with alot of stuff in life and being a mod, and it's still quite challenging, in a fun way :)

RE: Weekly Contest #106 - Friday September 12th - 19th by Sammoning (moderator) 9 years ago

The contest will close in about 8-9 hours from now, so that's about how much time is left :)

I am looking forward to more entries ofcourse :)
