Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Thy 9 years ago

Here's your challenge for this month to hopefully inspire you to post many beautiful pics of many beautiful bracelets again!

This is just for fun, but also for a few other reasons - what if you don't know what to knot? Take a peek here, see if there's anything you like! And some gorgeous patterns go unnoticed on the site, so why not try to make them a little more noticeable? And thirdly because, well, why not!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NORMAL

Beginners - less than 14 strings

#75451 - 8 strings

Advanced - 15 to 24 strings

#62088 - 16 strings

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To view these simply click on the link and hopefully I've not managed to mess up the BBCode and it should take you straight to the pattern.

Everyone has the entire month to make one or more of these patterns, how many you make is completely up to you guys. You can make just one or all of them, it's up to you.

Photos of the completed patterns would be awesome, if you can't upload them then that's ok too. Photos can be uploaded any time, or you can wait for the month to pass, it really is up to you guys. I'm not going to be using a deadline on photos being uploaded so if for example you go over the month target time it doesn't matter, you can still upload photo's or if you finish it in an hour you can also upload a photo. If you want to leave a note here to say that you've done that, please feel free!

If you don't or can't make it by the next challenge it doesn't matter....there's no prizes for being the first to finish it, it's all for fun! :-) Sometimes it's just nice to not have to make a decision about what to knot, y'know? ;)

There's only one exception, and that's the 'Pattern of the Month'. At the end of the month the winner will be chosen by you! And of course by the other users, by simply clicking the like-button below the picture you really like. To make it more interesting and to give every star a chance to shine, the same user can't win twice in a row from now on.
As always, pictures can be uploaded to the pattern itself. You can knot it in the original colors, or not. You can modify the pattern, or not. You can use the pattern to make a bracelet, a necklace, or whatever. It's all up to you!

Happy knotting!

PATTERN OF THE MONTH is #39619

excellent choices! I love the pattern of the month -- I'll try and push that one to the very top of my to do list ;-)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by kleinevos (moderator) 9 years ago

Very nice patterns! K995 was on my hot-list already, I just didn't have time to braid it yet. And the PotM is gorgeous! I can't wait to see it in different colorschemes:-)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Sammoning (moderator) 9 years ago

I wanna make #24045 by Logic :)
And probably one of the alphas too.

And yes the POTM is very pretty! In original colors as well so I hope I can make 2, if I can find nice colors for it :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Arismende 9 years ago

I LOVE the PotM, too!! - And I'll have a look for all the other patterns now :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Arismende 9 years ago

Indeed, such a nice choice! - This simple alpha wave pattern is very nice, I've never seen it before :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Veri 9 years ago

Beautiful patterns! Already looking forward to knotting the PotM :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by kleinevos (moderator) 9 years ago

K995 completed and posted twice!

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by kleinevos (moderator) 9 years ago

Completed and posted #39619, with a few changes in knot-structure though...

RE: Monthly Challenge #16 - October 2014 by Sammoning (moderator) 9 years ago

October is almost done.. I have not started on any of the bracelets I planned to do, or even picked colors for them :< They are definately still on my list though!
I did make the smallest one #75451 today, and about to upload it.
