Bi-Weekly Contest #169 - Saturday, September 10th - Friday, September 23rd by Cathy_3 7 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 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: #7107


If you need some help with colors, you're welcome to use the tutorial about combining colors.

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. At least 2 repeats of the patterns must be visible.

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

Happy knotting! :)

I love picking new colourschemes for these really old patterns, it is so easy to make it look completely different.. I'm definately going to know one up at least! Maybe some pastels..

Wow this is very interesting! You could do a lot with the color combination!

I feel this one will be really pretty in contrasting colors! It's such a good pattern!

I've never entered in one of these contests where exactly do I upload my picture when my braclets done?

RE: Bi-Weekly Contest #169 - Saturday, September 10th - Friday, September 23rd by Allison98 7 years ago

You can upload the picture to the pattern. :) So if you click the pattern, then at the top it says "Add Photo" and that's where you'd do it!

I finished my first one, which is quite springy; it's really a fun-pattern :)

I just finished up mine early this morning, took my photo and uploaded it. I'm hoping I was able to get in on time. I didn't get home till nearly 10pm and I'm normally home around 8:30pm so I was too tired to work on it. I go back to work later today. So I'm trying to work on these before going in. Picture is uploaded and waiting for approval... (sighs)...lol
