Hi, what do you mean by alpha knot? Are you talking about the knots used in alpha patterns? 😊

The knots used in alpha patterns are the same as in normal. The arrow going to the right means to make forward knot and the arrow to the left means to make a backward knot. The reason why the arrows are horizontal as opposed to an angle in the normal patterns is because when you are knotting an alpha, you knot row by row in a horizontal line. In normal patterns, all of the different colored threads work together to create a bracelet and the angled arrows show the path of where each string is moving (if that makes any sense😅)

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about. Perhaps the colour switch in the flat alpha technique. MashaKnots has a video on the flat alpha technique.
