⚠ Please read before messaging me! ⚠

You can message me with any questions you
have about making bracelets and designing
patterns but please be specific because only
then I can give you a specific answer.

The same goes when asking why your pattern
was declined. I see lots of patterns in a day, so
it would be great, if you described the pattern
to me and also told me what the decline
message said, because I most likely won't be
able to remember why I declined your pattern
based only on your username and no
additional information.

🧡How to read alpha patterns🧡

💛two tone alpha technique💛
https://youtu.be/dGdNoeyilaU
• can be used for alphas with just two colours
and some alphas with more colours
• very beginner-friendly

💚"regular" alpha technique💚
https://youtu.be/ePr81hbvdjE
• can be used for any alpha pattern

💙flat alpha technique💙
https://youtu.be/_YVFAX9sacw
• can be used for any alpha pattern
• makes the end result look nicer
• I would recommend this technique over the
regular alpha technique

💜clean back alpha technique💜
https://youtu.be/NLCUwVXscG0
• can be used on any alpha pattern, but works
best with small amount of colours
• based on the flat alpha technique, but more
advanced
• perfect for keychains because there are no
loose strings in the back

❤️shaped alpha technique❤️
