I’ve been tying bracelets for about two years but I have yet to complete an alpha- I always get frustrated as I’m a perfectionist when it comes to my bracelets. Do you guys have any tips for neater alphas- I’ve looked at a bunch of videos but any advice is welcome! Or— Do you have any good, simple patters that aren’t boring? Thanks for any help 🙂 |

Hi! My first alpha pattern that I made was #19454 and it was quite fun to make! It's quite easy to make and although there are quite a lot of colours, they aren't all in the same area which makes it easier. If you don't like that one, I'll just have a quick look for other options and get back to you in a few minutes.As for tips, I recommend taking your time, the slower you are the better it normally turns out. I also recommend using the same sizes string so that the knots are the same size and the rows don't get wonky. Hope that this helps! Feel free to ask any questions is you have any! 😊 |

@happyrobin that’s a beautiful pattern!! Thank you for the suggestion- I do have a bunch of floss from different brands so that’s definitely great advice!

Thanks! I had a quick look and found these:#24815 #22906 #33464 #26521 #26251 Some are slightly more difficult than others, but I thought that I would give you more options! You don't have to choose any of these though! If you know what kind of pattern you are looking for, then feel free to tell me so I can have a look for you! 😄 |

Here are a couple of them but really anything with less color switches and no color switches on the end are really good#49935 #97976 #57167 #35638 I believe in you! They are all hard at first but I know you can do it! (sorry if that is weird from a random stranger on the internet) |

Here are some good easy ones:For some of them, you can just do one of the shapes #85506 #67013 #26653 #84217 #111028 (you can trim it a bit so you don’t have the border etcc) #21401 #38672 #124285 #9702 #63139 #35638 #48364 #36093 #4212 #991 #100485 #74712 I’d also recommend watching some tutorials, especially how to do the colour change. I really liked the one by Marsha Knots Hope this helps and have fun 😄 |
