I can’t find a good video about how to make triangle ends or teardrop loops for alpha bracelets

There are two options
-make them like you would in a normal pattern but use the base strings
-knot them row by row like it's typical for an alpha
Which one do you want to do?

There are so many videos on alpha triangle ends. Can you maybe describe what you think wasn't good about the ones you've seen or what exactly you don't understand? Maybe I can find a specific video for that or explain it.

Have you watched any video? If yes, which video and what did you not understand about it?

I could give you a list of links to videos, but that would probably not be helpful because I'm sure you've already found them yourself 🙂

I watched Kinsey b and I love her but it was confusing because all of her b strings were the same color as the leading string

This video by kinsey b shows how to make a loop and triangle ends using the first option: https://youtu.be/FsgfJ9S_6bI

Here is a video by MashaKnots for the second option. The base strings are black in this one which could make it difficult to see, but they're a different colour from the leading string. https://youtu.be/YsCCgZZvziQ

This video shows an option that I haven't mentioned before. It also just uses the base strings like the first option: https://youtu.be/pDDkpsrl8XM

This video by Alex's Innovations is a comprehensive guide on starts and ends for normals and alphas. There is lots of useful information in it https://youtu.be/N6-KQDLeKik
