So I am obsessed with Harry Potter and I’m in Slytherin so when I found bracelet #58150 I knew I had to do it. The only problem is I’ve never done an alpha before. I’ve only done some candy stipe and braided stitch. Does anyone have any tips that could help or recommend and easier Harry Potter related bracelet?

i recommend learning flat alpha technique and straight edge alpha technique. There are a ton of tutorials on YouTube for reference.

i also think you should maybe try some simpler alphas first just for some practice.
here are some good beginner alpha patterns: #25493 #38672 #56454 #51933
good luck with your first alpha!
