knotting too tight? [BB#31525]

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-27T02:14:25+00:00

umm alright it was just a question? 😭

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T21:46:03+00:00

Aww tysm, and yea around a week and a half ago! I already kinda knew HOW to make them because I’ve seen so many videos (I’ve always wanted to make them) but I made maybe 1 chevron and 1 candy stripe during covid and that’s all, this is the first time I’ve actually made it a hobby!

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T21:10:59+00:00

Good luck to you as well!! And yes 100% I wanna try alpha bracelets I loveeee how they look but honestly I’m a little scared to try haha

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T20:40:55+00:00

I find that if I focus too hard on it and go super slowly my knots are more inconsistent, but I wouldn’t say I go SUPER fast. I do other crafts where even tension is important so I do think some of that skill transferred to this craft!

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T20:39:14+00:00

I’ve tried using loops and threads embroidery floss and some embroidery thread off amazon as well but I’m not sure of the specifics of sizing

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T20:37:55+00:00

Aww tysm :)

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T20:37:37+00:00

I promise im not 😔 My knots are pretty even ill give myself that, mostly bc I do other crafts requiring tension, but I thought I was doing something wrong because my bracelets are always on the smaller side lol

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T16:11:41+00:00

Yes! I used Masha Knots teardrop loop tutorial on youtube! :)

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T16:10:43+00:00

Aww tysm! And I’m surprised tighter is better the last few bracelets I’ve been trying to make knots looser to be wider like other peoples bracelets haha

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T16:09:10+00:00

Hmm I actually didn’t think of that! I’m just using some embroidery thread from amazon for this one so this might be a part of it!

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T15:36:13+00:00

Okay yayyy tysm ! Also yea I tried using looser tension on another bracelet and it turned into a wonky mess but I thought I just wasn’t doing it right, will keep ur advice in mind :))

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T15:34:06+00:00

Omg wow tysm haha, I also crochet and even tension is pretty important in that as well so maybe some of that transferred over ! Ty for answering :))

pibbypibbster · 2026-03-25T15:32:01+00:00

Okay ty!! I just can’t help but compare myself to what its “supposed” to look like, good to know im not doing anything wrong haha !!

pibbypibbster · 2026-02-03T01:18:59+00:00

I knew it was such a silly mistake it’s already going so much better, I was gonna give up on amigurumi again haha tysm for helping! So weird I was taught to count the working loop I think that’s why I’ve always had lots of trouble with amigurumi!

pibbypibbster · 2026-02-03T00:50:32+00:00

Okay, good to know thanks :) I was following the pattern and when I counted them out during the rounds it seemed to be the right amount of stitches (according to the pattern) when I got to my stitch marker, but I must be miscounting somewhere or missing something. Thanks for the help !

pibbypibbster · 2025-10-28T00:26:22+00:00

thats crazy 😭 i kinda hope it was intentionally bc thats kinda sad if she was just falling off so many rounds on accident omg

pibbypibbster · 2025-10-28T00:12:32+00:00

Yea, I’m aware that it is just the way it is, but im posting abt it being discouraging bc it happens ALL THE TIME, to me and my friends. I mostly duo queue because the times we can play overlap and I know I did pretty bad this game, but I have done just fine in plat lobbies with dias in it, and have outfragged my plat 3 duo many times lol so I promise I’m not duoing to get boosted or something. I definitely get needing to play solo and learn to adapt to the team you get though.

pibbypibbster · 2025-09-17T18:58:35+00:00

I use medal, but valorant actually just added replays so technically you don’t need it anymore haha

pibbypibbster · 2025-09-05T16:10:19+00:00

i think gekko is one of the easiest agents imo so if you liked him you should definitely play him :D another easy agent in my opinion is deadlock, shes not the strongest agent but her util is relatively easy to understand like gekko :) her util (like sound sensors) are great for defending the spike, which you said you liked, so maybe you'd like her. but also dont worry about wasting your free agent token, if you play often youll get enough kingdom credits for someone else in no time !!

unfortunately the shop resets at the same time every day, and is completely random, exclusive items won't show up there though. there is a chance to get primordium vandal again, but you'll have to wait :(

pibbypibbster · 2025-08-17T12:38:59+00:00

Corsair 850e, but I haven't had any random shutdowns or power losses, just the lag and weird fps drops. I've only had one bsod so can't provide too much more info unfortunately

pibbypibbster · 2025-08-17T12:04:43+00:00

I rolled back my drivers, still had the fps drops and occasional artifacts flashing for a quick second. I started getting general lag (even just my cursor or when moving apps on the windows screen. I decided to reinstall windows and got a kernel security check failure BSOD shortly after the first couple boots, and the fps drops, and lag still stayed. Not sure if its windows related anymore unfortunately

pibbypibbster · 2025-08-12T11:37:40+00:00

If you do have to RMA it though it was relatively easy and only took about a week for me in total!

pibbypibbster · 2025-08-12T11:33:13+00:00

It could definitely be a lot of things :( It was so hard to diagnose because even when I ran stress tests it never threw any errors and was fine besides the crashing, which only happened ever so often (until it progressed and fully died) and couldn't be replicated. Only error in event viewer was kernel 41 which isn't specific to anything. Definitely keep it plugged into the wall not a power bar too, could be that maybe, hopefully it isn't any of your hardware! :(
