Bi-Weekly Contest #159 (Friday, April 22nd - Friday, May 6th) by Cathy_3 8 years ago

*We've decided to extend these contests for a while. You'll now have two weeks to knot your bracelet(s) and post a picture*

For these (bi-)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.~

This week's pattern is: #9396:



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.

Important thing is to have fun with it and unleash your creativity.

Happy knotting! :)

I haven't started on these yet, can't believe the 2 weeks are already nearly over.. Will try to make one or two in this extra long weekend!

I just posted my 9-color contest entry. Each (double) string is a different color, even the one that is hidden for the entire length. I added beads, but they are mostly the same color as the knots they replace.

I'll post mine around 4pm (EST). I'm going to be busy until then! I really like how mine turned out. :)
