if i want the edges of the triangle to be a little smoother could i do a forward-backward / backward-forward knot on the outside base strings? edit: never mind, found the answer in the comments :) if you're wondering the same the answer is yes!
Totally trying this out on my next alpha bracelete!! This looks so much less time consuming than the other way (although i love how both ways look). Tysm love how helpful your channel is!
Thank you so much for what you do here, for your clarity and patience in demonstrating how to make these gorgeous little works of art!!! I absolutely love being able to make the things I can make, but I only learned how to do so well with these because of your instruction!
of course, an updated triangle ends for alphas comes right after i start the pumpkin alpha with the old version (which made it curl A LOT) still gonna use this technique for my next alpha :)
you would do a forward knot on the first clump of strings, then do a forward knot on the single string you leave in the middle (cuz it’s an odd number) and then you do another forward nots onto the second (right clump) of strings.
I love this new technique so much!!!! I'll make sure to use it next time, if u don't mind me asking what technique did u use to make the bracelet to straight? I've tried looking for techniques for alpha bracelets but only find normal patterns, I love ur straight edge for normal patterns and it has tremendously improved my normal bracelets and would love to do the same to my alpha. Other than that I love ur videos!!!!!
Okay am I having a deja vu or have you made this tutorial before XDD edit: I see you saying in the comments that it's a different technique than the one before but I can't tell the difference? What is it?
I’m new to your channel and I love all your content. 🥰 I would love to see a tutorial on this bracelet, I am obsessed with the moon, this would be amazing. 😍 I love your technique and voice! Favorite crafts youtuber. (-:
Wouldn't the coverage on the sides of the triangle start (and end) be better if you did forward-backward and backward-forward knots instead of just forward and backward knots?
I have a question. If i already started my alpha, without any starting technique (no triangle ends, no loops, no nothing) Can i still make triangle ends at the beginning of my bracelet?
I know this comment is old, but yes you can! You can go back to the start and untie a few knots from the beginning, insert a new leading string and do a triangle end.
I have a question. I've done this technique before but when ever I do the triangle end to finish my bracelet I get gaps along the edges. I tend to use black as my background color, and white as my base because I have plenty of it. Is this gaping normal with this technique or am I doing something wrong?
I got so confused I thought you kept changing strings bc the color kept changing, until I realized it was an ombre/gradient type 😭 maybe you can disclose at the beginning of the video
I’m brand new to triangle ends. I understand this video perfectly but I’m ending up with a problem where the bottom of the triangle ends up looking like a U. I can’t make it flat enough to where the rest of the bracelet is aligned. How do I fix this? The pattern I’m using is 40 strings. Not sure if that makes a difference.
I needed this video a few weeks ago when I attempted to do a 24 string bracelet but the beginning always came out ugly so I experimented and again I messed up
I know you probably don’t want to hear my negativity but I keep trying this bracelet beginning and I keep failing big time, I don’t know if it’s cause I just wasn’t mean to do alphas or because I’m bad at them or something? What I’m saying is, what do you think I could do to make it work
you probably get hundreds of comments daily but i'm having trouble starting a 9 string alpha bracelet with a teardrop loop, and i want it to be a part of the bracelet and not just a out of place loop and then triangle end beginning. anyway i cannot find a video with my situation and if you can do a little demonstration? it's a simple pattern i'm just having trouble getting a teardrop loop in BB pattern#: 21401
