🧵 Pattern 105408 (Kumi 802) is done and… we’re learning things. šŸ˜…

Gray variegated floss + white sounded like a good idea, but those light gray sections kinda disappeared. Still, the pattern itself? Solid. Took just over an hour to knot and had a cool chevron-diamond flow.

🧪 Intermediate-level knots
⚔ Glows under UV light — the white pops!
šŸŽÆ Learned: Contrast matters more than you think.

Just finished Pattern 89436 (Kumi 1683), and this pink + purple combo is giving us all the light vs shadow energy. šŸŒ—

I played with direction changes and zigzag knots to make the variegated floss flow smoother—and it worked! This one's beginner-friendly on paper but I added a little extra finesse to make the colors blend right.

šŸ”„ Pattern 109315 (Kumi 2679) just dropped and it’s šŸ”„ fiery red + golden yellow šŸ”„ perfection!

This 12-string design channels tribal vibes with an eye-like center motif and three chevrons to finish it off. The red variegated floss subtly shifts shades, adding depth without overpowering the design. Honestly didn’t think I’d love it this much—but here we are!

šŸ‰ Dragon-scale vibes incoming! Pattern #98600 (Kumi #4118) is live on YouTube and this one's got some moody contrast magic happening. A two-color pattern that almost blended too well — but wow, the result is mesmerizing.

The cheapest shipping for me to send a bracelet to USA because of the tariffs is $159.00 and that doesn't cover the cost of the tax once in America. I can't even send a gift because of this new system. So for now and the foreseeable future I'm unable to sell to Americans.

🧵✨ New Pattern Drop: #89433 aka Kumi #1068!
This 12-string variegated blue beauty surprised me with an acid-washed jeans vibe that’s just 🤯. Subtle shifts in tone make it look like the threads are dancing in every direction—but without overwhelming the pattern.

Hey friends, Kevin here (aka AWOL), and today we’re finishing off pattern #108816 from friendship-bracelets.net, with kumi #775 for the loop. This two-color project features a lighter solid + variegated combo—and the results? A little unexpected. šŸ˜…

🧵 This bracelet? A lesson in color contrast.

I used pattern #88642 with a color-changing floss way too close to the solid—and as a result, whole chunks of the pattern just vanished 😬

Don’t get me wrong—it’s still got charm (especially those little ridges from the long rows!), but I’ll definitely be switching up the color combos moving forward. Brighter solid + darker variegated? Yes please šŸ’”

ā˜• This bracelet totally gave off coffee creamer vibes!

Pattern #10699 is a 12-string zigzag beauty I paired with kumi #1650 and experimented with a beige-to-brown variegated floss. I thought the contrast would pop more—but some parts practically disappear. Still… I kinda love how soft and blended it looks šŸ˜

šŸŽ‰ It’s DONE! Pattern #103437 gave me more of a challenge than I expected—those zigzags really tested my focus šŸ˜…

I used a solid pink + variegated red combo, and wow… the results are so unique and can’t be duplicated exactly. That’s the magic of variegated floss 🌈

🧶 It was supposed to be easy… and then it wasn't. šŸ˜…

Tried pattern #85620 with a kumi loop ( #8639) and thought two alternating rows would be a breeze. Fast-forward: 70 minutes, four mistakes, and a lot of counting later—I finally got it right. šŸ˜‚
