~Bi-Weekly Contest #166 - Friday July 29th - August 12th
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 *

~This week's pattern is #52696


~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, August 12th, since the mods will start voting on Saturday. The new contest will be posted on this Friday as well.

~Make your bracelet with whatever materials you want! You can 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! :)

Super cute! :) Might try this one!

In row 13, the pink shouldn't be knotted onto the red (second knot on the left side). Just noticed that when I was figuring out colour schemes.

It's hard to see with the current colours used!

This is super cute!

Thanks Allison, didn't notice that one, I will change it right away!

Looks like, if you wanted to, you could divide the "white" strings into two colors. One for the four white knots in the center of the pattern, and another color for the four white knots on rows 4 and 16.

Oh no! I just realized that I left all my strings/floss at the cottage (we were planning to go up again on Friday but things changed) so I'll have to see what odds and ends I may have hiding in my closet.

RE: ~Bi-Weekly Contest #166 - Friday July 29th - Aug. 12th by Sammoning (moderator) 7 years ago

Yes that is indeed allowed for the contest as well, EdBlair :)
I usually try to optimalize the structure for extra colours.

RE: ~Bi-Weekly Contest #166 - Friday July 29th - Aug. 12th by Nelipot 7 years ago

I'm starting this one today! I don't think I'll be able to do much of the contests for a while due to my crazy schedule with school, so this one will be the last for a while, might as well make it count! I can't wait to see what everyone will come up with.
