Freestyle Bracelet Design! Unique Patterns & Color Blending in Real-Time

“Hey everyone! Kevin here, aka AWOL, and today I’m trying something completely different—creating a one-of-a-kind bracelet pattern on the spot! Starting with no set plan, I’m experimenting with color placement, using shapes like chevrons, diamonds, and some unique twists along the way.

In this video, I walk you through the entire process, using color theory to blend warm and cool tones and balance each color’s placement in the pattern. Plus, I’ll share tips for tracking your string flow so you don’t get lost while creating a complex design. It’s a thicker bracelet too, so if you love a chunky look, this one’s for you!

Join me as I take a freeform approach to bracelet design, and learn how you can use simple guidelines to create something truly unique.

Hello everyone, it’s Kevin, aka AWOL! Today, I’m taking on a more advanced bracelet design with doubled strings and tons of zigzag knots, creating a unique diamond shape with a twist. Doubling up saves some time but also adds an extra challenge with managing tension and intricate patterns. If you’re looking to improve your knotting skills and experiment with bold shapes and color blending, this is the bracelet for you!

This design balances colors to highlight each section, especially with orange and red as the dominant colors. I’ll also share tips on keeping track of your knots, working with string thickness, and using templates for perfect symmetry.
