Can you help me find alphas with a lot of empty rows that would be good for a first alpha? Thanks!!! Or any other alpha that you would recommend to be a first alpha with few colors.

@fishyknots #57682 is a great alpha pattern to start with because it is so small. 😊

Here's some that aren't too large and would be good beginner patterns:

#38672 waves
#42410 cat paws
#40359 sun
#29052 divided heart
#26282 turtle
#59448 snowman face
#80293 flower
#23680 hedgehog
#42978 yin yang
#59509 smiley face
#45174 aztec
#108765 skull with wings
#145748 orca
#59132 dinosaur
#90936 abstract squares


For a lot of patterns, you can omit extra stuff on the sides and just knot the center design.

#36093 only center butterfly
#126334 ladybug
#20483 fox
#46125 daisy
#56591 panda

Or add extra blank rows on each side so the design stays in the center of a long bracelet:
#25140 bee
#43830 cat
#25504 duck


Fun slightly different techniques to learn:
#49390 evil eye, video tutorials for shaped alpha technique
#89623 shaped frog
#15234 and #8046 Vertical wave with video tutorials on both
#36730 rag rug using scrap threads- great for practice!
