Designing a Bold Blue & Red Zigzag Bracelet!
Hey everyone, it’s Kevin (aka AWOL), and today I’m stepping up the challenge with this intricate blue & red zigzag bracelet design! 🎨 Featuring three shades of blue fading into red & pink, this one plays with contrasts and polka-dot details to create a bold, eye-catching effect! 💙❤️
💡 In this video:
✔️ Why I love copy & paste when designing patterns
✔️ The trick to making complex zigzag knots look clean
✔️ How I balance contrast by fading colors in opposite directions
✔️ Why I don’t use black or white as template colors 🎨
⚠️ Difficulty Level: This is the most advanced design in the series so far! If you’re still working on mastering zigzag knots, this will be a great challenge! 💪
