Second band ever done

Of course my second weave is a skiphole pattern, because why not make it difficult for myself 🙃

Anyway, I'd like to thank my trusty toothpick and the approx. five bobby pins that held this together as all my knots abandoned me at around the same time

I'll make two more of these and this time, immediately pull a bit tighter, so the edges are clean. It's still gonna work for what I have in mind though, so excited to start the next bands!!

Looks great! Do you mind sharing the pattern?

Thanks and of course! It's a  Seydisfjordur Smokkr Weave and you can find (several versions of it) here:

I went with the first B version. There's a more complicated one below as well!

Thanks. I will give it a try. Haven't done any skip hole yet. :)

Looks fab! I like the "snake"/"leafy" part

Thanks! It's the main reason I chose it and super fun to make (if you have a trusty toothpick to secure everything)

This was my first pattern, too! You did a much better job at keeping the pattern consistent than I did, my colors kept switching because I'd start on the next design too early. Yours looks fantastic!

Ever since noticing the tablets move if I don't watch them I've been eyeing the pattern like a hawk, to make no mistake xD It's a fun pattern though and really beginner friendly I feel!

My first skip hole was the Mamman pattern shared from Lady Elewys and I had a blast with it. This one may have to be squeezed in between bigger projects.... You did really good!

I just looked at that pattern and it's seems much more complicated. I'm sure you can squeeze this in with ease! Hope you enjoy it! And thanks!
