Is there a way to do an alpha loops (especially teardrop ones) with a leading string and not the base strings? All of tutorial i’ve seen is about how you need to knot base stings together but can I do the same thing using leading string? I don’t want to waste so much thread on the base strings ://

Yep! If you watch Masha Knots' tutorial she shows you how to do it only using the leading string. Personally the tutorial I found most helpful was https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhU6IWcnt6I

J'ai une question moi aussi. Pour faire une boucle, c'est mieux d'avoir un nombre pair de fils. Pour les alphas, est-ce que le fil principal fait parti du calcul de fils ? Je veux faire ce porte-clé #136451. Sa largeur est 18 fils, mais il demande 19 fils. Alors la boucle a-t-elle un nombre pair, ou impair de fils ? 🤔I have also a question. To make a loop, it's better to have an even number of strings. For the alphas, do the leading string is taking place in the calculation of the strings ? I want to make this keychain. It's width is 18 strings, but it ask 19 strings. So, the loop has it an even number, or an odd number of strings ? |

@Alicia0214 The leading string is already calculated into the shown number. So with your project you would have 18 base strings and 1 leading string, which totals in the 19 strings shown 😊

@_mermaid_, alors SI je comprends, même si mon nombre de fils porteurs est pair, ma boucle va être impair à cause du fil principal ?So IF I understand, even if my number of base strings is even, my loop will be odd because of the leading string ? |

For a pattern with 18 base strings, you take 9 strings double the length and fold them in half to have 18 base strings.There are basically two options for making a loop (or rather the shaped start after the loop) in an alpha: - using the same technique you would use in a normal using only the base strings and no leading string in the beginning - knotting the shaped start row-by-row like you do in the rest of the alpha Which of those options would you like to do? @Alicia0214 |

@halokiwi J’ai déjà préparé 9 fils pour les plier en deux 👍. Et des deux choix, je préfère la deuxième technique, pour que le départ commence comme un modèle alpha.I have already prepared 9 strings to fold them in half. And for the two choices, I prefer the second technic, for the start begins like an alpha pattern. |

@Alicia0214 then you have two options- include one end of the leading string in the loop, you can cut that end in the end, this way it's easier to hide the end of the leading string - don't include the end of the leading string in the loop and just start the shaped start like you would do it, if you didn't do a loop |

Merci @halokiwi, j’ai trouvé une vidéo sur YouTube un tutoriel pour faire des boucles et des départs avec un nombre pair et impair de fils. Je vais faire mon départ de bracelet comme ça 👍. Merci tout le monde !Thanks @halokiwi, I found a video on YouTube a tutorial to make loops and starts with even and odd of strings. I will make the start of my bracelet like that. Thank you everybody ! |
