looking for a good Triforce pattern

Deleted Account 6/29/2013 09:07 pm 842

I'm looking for a small triforce pattern (24-28 beads) I've tried two patterns already, neither worked out for me.. Any one have a good pattern that they know works?

Hey MarMar, Have you tried using the search feature on this site? You can find triforce patterns that way and also photos of completed triforce cuffs. I recommend that you search for only the word force actually, because some people put a space between tri and force and others don't. Here's a search page with all the triforce patterns: http://kandipatterns.com/search?searchword=force And here are photos of people who have made triforce patterns: http://kandipatterns.com/search/index?searchword=force&type=photos Let me explain something about cuff patterns: if a cuff pattern has a number of even columns and the design wraps around correctly or doesn't wrap around at all, it will work. All of the multi-stitch triforce patterns on this site will work. We don't accept patterns unless they work, but a few bad ones do get through occasionally. If you're wondering how it can be true that "all patterns work", imagine this: you make a plain white cuff with an even number of columns. It's a perfectly made cuff; all the beads line up correctly. Then imagine that you paint a design onto the white beads using actual paint. You can do whatever design you want, right? There's no reason that you couldn't do a triforce if it fit on the cuff. It's the same thing with beads. Then, if you were to somehow cut the cuff so that it was flat instead of a tube-shape, and laid it down, what you would have would be the pattern. The pattern will always look exactly the same as the finished cuff, but flat. That means that if a pattern has an even number of columns on the screen, wraps around correctly, and looks okay on the screen, it can always be made into a cuff. All you're doing is connecting the two ends of the flat design. It's just an issue of getting the beads in the right place. Another way of thinking of it is that a cuff pattern is just like a photo of a flat cuff. I'm sure you realize this, but it's even more obvious when you make a cuff using peyote stitch because when you use peyote stitch you end up with a flat piece that looks just like the pattern. Then you connect the ends to make it into a cuff.
