Macrame Gear

So, this box was challenging but we loved it and felt a sense of accomplishment after completing. The carabiner was simple and easy to complete. However it took us several tries for the watch. The video helped and we pieced together the instructions from the video and the paper instructions to complete the watch. We needed more instruction after p11 Step 4. This is where we really struggled to get it going. My 10 year old would have never completed this on her own. At 40 years old, it took me several rounds of the video and reading the instructions to finally get it. More cords would have also helped because my child refused to use mismatched colors on the watch band and since we had already used her fav colors for the carabiner, we had to tie together some of leftover half pieces to make the watch work for her desired color scheme. Again the carabiner turned out perfectly, but the watch was a little wonky in the end. One more watch and we would have perfected the technique.
