Hey guys! So imagine you’re making an alpha bracelet and the pattern calls for a change of color for the very last string and you then have to use the same two colors on the same two strings for the next row. So you just do a forward knot for the second to last string and for the last string you just don’t do the flat alpha technique for that color change. You go onto the next row and this time when you do the color change, you realize that it looks like you had finished the row twice! Well, don’t worry about that, because I have recently figured out that if you do an f/b knot for that first color you don’t have that weird bump-out/ If you have any questions, just ask. I don’t think I was very clear lol

Are you talking about a color popping out at the end of the row? If so I’d recommend not doing the flat alpha technique on that one knot, and just knot with the next color you need. It’ll stay together don’t worry.

@meljensik I mean when you have to do it multiple times in a row you can see little bumps inside your bracelet like when you go to a new row
