You can use it to make a rag rug bracelet or just use it if u need a little bit if a color in alphas so you dont cut new string

So you make it as normal( without triangle ends or stuff like that)
Make it long enough to wrap around your finger
Knot the ends on the side people won’t see
Cut close to the knots
Glue the knots
Flip it over and you’re done

I don’t know if I explained it well enough, so feel free to ask questions.

Here is the video I watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6chNez7nHo

You can use them for base strings for alpha keychains. I also like to use them for my leading strings in alphas. So if I need black and I have five strands of black thread, I use them all up before I cut new string for the alpha

I put all of my scrap thread in a little plastic box and use it for bracelet that I make for smaller wrists or when I make some smaller bracelets or even alphas! I also use it for when I make my bracelets adjustable ( works great!!)!

I will print out a phrase or word like “Hope” and then fill in the letters with extra string on a piece of plastic and put it up to the window. Looks pretty cool. If you want further explanation I am more than willing to share my process

I save it and just use it for alphas unless they are super short then I just throw them away.

I use them for my alpha's and sometimes use them to make loops for normals(Which I have a tutorial for)
