It’s finished!!

I’m so SO happy with how this piece turned out. I love Truce so much and the ending of Breach solidified that for me too.

The pattern for this piece is out now and can be found here:

Hope you like this piece as much as I do! ❤️

Pattern # 206629 on BraceletBook

I'm out of practice so this took a little longer than it should have but the shape still turned out good.

I had a breakthrough today.

It may seem ironic for a handmade sideblog, but i do have problems with dexterity. For all my years of knotting, I never fully got the "knot consistency" many seasoned bracelet makers have, and even with my experience my work has bumps here and there

This is not a lack of knowledge or experience thing, more of a dexterity problem that i have as an autistic, and highly likely dyspraxic person (not self diagnosing, more like self suspecting)

Now, here's my current work, and the row i implemented the method i'm about to tell you for comparison

Same pair of hands. same knowledge, you can literally see that i do have a more bumpy work earlier on. Do you know what's the difference?

I adjusted every single knot one by one instead of relying on getting the tension right alone.

But how do you do that?

Make a full knot on your pattern (according to whatever you're making)

grab your current string plus the strings that are already knotted in the row (alpha) or section (normal) with your non-dominant hand

using your dominant hand, start adjusting:

If your knot is loose (you see string stick out of the knot), pull on the color string

If your knot is tight (not visible), gently grab it and push it out while holding the other strings down to keep it straight

Use your finger to check if the row is straight. If you see a knot that is uneven (too high or too low), you can use a needle or a nail to gently move it where it should go.

That's it, literally. I just didn't write it down while working on the Ludwig pattern and forgot about it. I hope I can help at least one more person with this!

Here's the comparison with m&l Ludwig!

Hi I started knitting a while ago and wanted a ghost sweater or cowel or hat or tapestry or whatever so please enjoy my 3 hour project

This has not been tested, me and a friend are planning to hopefully make this soon! If you’re a mutual and would like to make this feel free to dm me! I rather others not until I’ve tested it but if you really must, obviously I’d appreciate the credit for it <3

Grid under cut!

It’s about 141x133 stitches in size, obviously can be made in any color you’d like. But I’m really proud of it! I love ghost (obviously) and love fiber arts so if I can add some patterns to the current lack I’d love to <3

Hopefully I’ll be back with an update for this soon!
