I think is no matter which alpha pattern you choose first, but less colors = easier pattern,If you want you can scroll my to-dos and loves 😉 |

You can search for alpha patterns that have little amounts of colors or have lower difficulty levels.

I would say start with a 2-color pattern with 10 strings or less. Alphas can involve lots of techniques which make them look neater, but those are not really for beginners so just a simple pattern without using any of those techniques would be a good start, and soon once you get used to them you can start using the techniques.

After a few times you can try doing patterns with more colors and strings.

One more thing: If for example a pattern says it has 9 strings, it's not 9 base strings, it's 8 base strings + 1 leading string

I am new to the alpha patterns and would like to make a bracelet of 13x61 dimensions 14 strings and 7 colors. How can I best start with this. I think I once read that you then need 13 wires and you need the 14 wires for the beginning is this correct and how should you use the new color thanks in advance
