I Turned Pattern 1889 into a Rainbow… and the Result Surprised Me

Today we’re working with pattern 1889—just one digit away from the last pattern… but with a very different outcome 👀

This one builds on a similar structure, but instead of two diamonds, we get three, which changes how the colors flow through the design. So naturally… I had to experiment 😄

Instead of sticking with the original color layout, I turned it into a rainbow pattern and let the design figure itself out as I went.

In this video, we explore:

How small pattern changes (2 diamonds → 3) affect complexity
Turning grouped colors into a rainbow flow
Why some colors get used more than others
How to trace string paths by focusing on easy connections first

💡 Key Design Insight:
If you fill in the obvious paths first, the confusing parts become MUCH easier to solve. The pattern basically reveals itself.

🎨 What Happened?
The center ended up dominated by hot colors
A bold orange X shape appeared unexpectedly
Some colors (like green) get used more than others

And honestly… I didn’t see any of that coming 😅

🧵 Tips from This Design
Always cut extra string when patterns vary in usage
Look for parallel paths to confirm you’re on track
Use mirroring (copy + flip) to build full designs faster

This is another take on pattern 1888—and honestly, this one just felt right the whole way through 😄

With the teardrop loop start and a rainbow-inspired color setup, this bracelet came together smoothly and ended up with a really unique look—especially in how the colors interact.

In this video, we talk about:

Why starting with cold colors (green, blue, purple) changes the flow
How this pattern mixes hot and cold colors in a really unusual way
Why red is barely used—and how that affects the design
How this bracelet can be made almost effortlessly once you get going

⏱️ Total time: Under 1 hour (with distractions 😅)

🎨 What Makes This One Different?

Most designs separate color groups…
This one blends them together in a way that creates a totally different vibe.

Cold colors lead the design
Green continues into the hot section
Red is used very minimally (almost like an accent)
🧠 Design Insight

Sometimes a pattern stands out not because of complexity—but because of unexpected color flow.

This is a great example of breaking the “rules” and still ending up with something really cool.

🧵 Tips from This Bracelet
You can follow this one without constantly checking the pattern
String usage is fairly balanced (but always cut extra!)
Great project if you want something relaxing but still visually interesting
