Personally I flip the bracelet over to undo knots because knots are easier to undo from the backside. I just put my fingernail between the two halves of the knot and pull down until the second half gets loose. If I can grab the string of the second half I grap it and pull on it until it undoes. For the first half I do the same thing. Some people use safety pins instead of their finger nails.

i usually try and undo it with a pencil because i always have one nearby when making bracelets (i use it to cross rows off). if the knot is really tight then i'll flip it over and use a safety pin to undo it!

I just get a needle and poke it in, once I have one half of the knot I pull it out, then repeat for the other half of the knot

I use a needle and pull at the string that it being knotted onto, so that it's Lind of sticking out, then I just pull the knot down till it falls of the string and unties itself.

I use a thumbtack or a safety pin to untie a knot. You go under the knot and pull towards yourself and it will unravel

I use a safety pin to untie a knot from the front. It’s the easiest method for me

I use a needle or my finger nails to untie the first knot and for the second, I just pull on the knitting string until it gets loose enough to untangle.

Hi, I would usually just turn the bracelet or alpha around (so the backside is facing me), and I find the two halves if the knots. I undo them with my fingernail. If you have any other questions with undoing knots, I would suggest looking at Masha Knot's tutorial on "fixing mistakes."Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuHDeuDHDlw Hope this helps you! 😄 |

I use a safety pin and it helps a lot. I also make sure I have really good lighting because it’s hard to undo a knot in dim lighting when you can’t see it very well

I use the back of my earrings 😂, like the shape parts and stick it in the middle of the knot and pull it down. It works fine!

A new thing that I did is take an exacto knife and cut off the place I made a mistake in between the two base strings I cut the leading string or whatever I was using. Then I scrunched it off the base strings. I did have to tape a new leading string to change to but it was so much easier than untying everything

I use a safety pin, which is easy to bring with you along with your bracelet, and you can also use them to clip your bracelet to your jeans for a road trip, which is what I do when I don't want to drag a clipboard around. Hope this helps <3

Since my knots are pretty tight, I use a safety pin. I push it in the knot under one string, and wiggle and pull it. It's hard to explain haha

I usually use a thumb tack or sewing needle. Also, I've found that sometimes it can help to flip the bracelet over and undo it from the back. If you don't have any thumbtacks or safety pins or anything sharp like that, you could probably use a pencil or pen, but I recommend a thumbtack or something like it. Hope this helps! 😘

if it is the first row of an alpha you can just slip it off
