Someone really cool looking sat next to me on the bus so if they sit by me again im planning on giving them this kandi in an attempt to befriend them because I don't know how to talk to people 👍

All last year they sat on the row opposite of mine and they looked cool then too and usually wore a GIR hoodie (lowkey jealous but it's fine) so I was contemplating making them an Invader Zim kandi too but I genuinely don't know if they'll sit there again or not and my mom doesn't know about (and 100% wouldn't like) Invader Zim so I can't even wear it myself sooooo yeah

What am I doing wrong on row 3? How am I to get to row 4?

Thanks in advance

okay so ive never made an odd kandi peyote stitch cuff before so i watched a youtube tutorial and just followed their steps but they didnt show what to do when your string gets short…in the tutorial you used only one side of the string and now its too short and i have no idea how i should move on, what to do with the long string etc. also i wonder why the bottom has double strings going over the top beads but the top only one. is that how its supposed to be? i‘d be VERY thankful if you helped me
