Hey! I just started making alphas and I have a really good tip! If you use clipboards, when you introduce a new leading string, use a BINDER CLIP to fix it to the side of the clipboard! It's EXTREMELY secure and really helps! If you have any other good tips feel free to share here!

That’s a great tip! I use tape to introduce new leading strings.

@parissoc In alpha patterns forward and backward knots are used. They are the same knots also used in normal patterns.

I recommend watching MashaKnots' video on the flat alpha technique to learn how to make alphas. I'm pretty sure that she also explains the knots.

@parissoc I don't think Masha explains the knots in the flat alpha video, but you can watch her basic knots video and carry over that knowledge!
