I wanna make #154621 but it has three vertical lines, so wouldn't it make it like three different bracelets? because theres nothing to hold the three parts together.how can I make this pattern? |

If you use the flat alpha technique you will integrate the string of the last knot of the color into the first knot of the next color, which will help it keep it toghether. Also you have the pink on both sides so the string going across like that will help it keep it toghether as well.

If you wanted to make it extra secure you can maybe integrate the string of the previous color in the knots of the next (like in the flat alpha technique) for more than one knot so maybe 3 or 4, that way you can make sure it doesn't separate.

I would recommend using two separate pink leading strings btw, one for the left and one for the right. This way you won't be "wasting" pink string that spans from one side to the other and the strings will be less likely to tangle.

I think including the leading string in one knot after switching colours should be enough, but you can also include the leading string of the following colour in the last knot of the previous colour. I always do that when doing the flat alpha technique. I do it before AND after the colour switches.
