When I make my alphas they always seem really streched and long. what am i doing wrong? My knots are all the same size and there all square shaped...

they’re always like that. i’ve heard that doubling your base strings help widens then out

Play around with making your knots looser, if they're rather tight; in contrast, if your knots are pretty loose, make them a bit tighter! Also, check out the flat alpha technique- there's many videos of it on YouTube 🙂

I am trying to make my first alpha and it is so hard to do it. The instructions won't fit in the page and it says something about it being 50 LINES 😭 🤯 . I am doing this for school and it has to be done by at least January 10. Can you please help me?

@Idefixbook have you tried printing it on two pages?

@Idefixbook you go to the pattern and there is a "print" button on the upper right

@addierosy after every row, use a ruler to squish the knots up, that really improved my alphas. And also know loosely before using the ruler to push the knots closer together.
