ok, so i would make a 3-4 string alpha with no color switches and use one foot of string for the knots, maybe like cut a 2 foot piece and once you tie the first knot, measure how many inches it is, then measure it every so often while knotting until the string is 12 inches less then the starting number. then count how many knots you tied and subtract 1, for the first knot that wasnโt measured into the string, if your using 8 m skeins, then its just over 26 feet of string per skien, so multiply however many knots you tied by 26 and thats about how many knots a skien can make, but i would get 1-2 extra to be safe. also sorry i cant give you a general answer, cause everyone ties knots differently and uses ip different amounts of string for each knot, depending on the tightness and thickness of the string. hope this helps snd lmk if you have any questions!!
