Monthly Challenge - December 2014 by kleinevos (moderator) 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

#40224 - 10 strings

Advanced - 15 to 24 strings

#48138 - 18 strings

Extreme - 25 strings +

#67772 - 36 strings



ALPHA

Beginners - 2 colors

A42337

Advanced - 3 to 4 colors

A41133

Extreme - 5 or more colors

A24730



KUMIHIMO

Beginners - up to 16 strings

K4841 - 16 strings

Advanced - More than 16 strings

K4125 - 40 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 #32584

How many rotations of the 36 string pattern do you need to do to post a pic??

RE: Monthly Challenge - December 2014 by kleinevos (moderator) 9 years ago

This is all just for fun, you can make your bracelet or keychain, or whatever, as big as you like. Just like any other project you would make :-)

I'm knotting the 'POM' now, and it's sooooo different once you change the colours a little bit! It has so much scope :)
