~February Themed Monthly Challenge~
Valentine's day, february 14th is the day of LOVE. With this in mind I selected patterns with hearts, flowers or cute colors. (Ofcourse you are free to pick any colors you like, you don't have to stick with the theme at all.)

Love is like a nice warm feeling you recieve from people you care about. Think about your crush, your boyfriend or girlfriend or your partner. Or your mother, father, siblings, best friends, favorite teacher or that nice neighbour, or anyone that is important to you.
So why not make something special for someone special in your life?

That's your challenge for this month, hopefully it will 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!

To view these simply click on the link 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 everyone!~

PATTERN OF THE MONTH IS: #57236 by purple3339

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by PastorMelissa 8 years ago

Too many cute patterns! I don't know where to start!

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by Teuntje1998 8 years ago

Making a keychain of A30900 right now :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by PastorMelissa 8 years ago

I finished 65181, working on 12919, and will move to the POTM after that.

I really wanted to do original colors on these, but I can't. Either I think, not enough red and pink. Or I think, this is pink overkill.

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by Sammoning (moderator) 8 years ago

I'm currently working on #25573 and a colored version of A29177 :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by Paulaa 8 years ago

Hi! When is the last day to upload pictures to challenge? :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by Sammoning (moderator) 8 years ago

Since there's no prizes or voting involved, you can upload your photos whenever you like!
Ofcourse the best option is before the end of the month, but we also don't mind when these patterns get a photo 6 months later! :)

RE: Monthly Challenge #32, February 2016 by Paulaa 8 years ago

Oh, alright. Thank you very much. I'll try doing one of these till the end of the month ;)
