For those of you who know how to read the patterns and just want to skip to the colour change technique: Skip to 12:26 ✨ Special thank you to Claire (@claires_wears_spam on Instagram) for the huge help in figuring out this technique ✨
sarah zhao she’s not crediting who started it, she’s crediting who she found out this technique from and who helped her further. That’s how it’s done, you credit who you found it from.
@@chubbypastry3516 why do people think fenkoplet came up with the idea? 😂 It's a very widely used technique, she just happened to make a video on it, it's not her original creation. I thanked Claire because she helped me out, that's it
I just downloaded braceletbook yesterday and feel like a total noob. Now I’m here to learn how to make an alpha bracelet after making normal bracelets for 4 years.Yes, I lived under a rock.I never knew there were alpha bracelets.😭
Me too I also have a shop and sell my bracelets but I always used to avoid alpha because it's clearly hard... but now it's time to learn everything and move on to next level
I’m in the process of making my first normal friendship bracelet when I realized there is a whole world of bracelet designs out there! I was so excited to get started making alpha patterns I came straight to this video!!!! Thanks I can’t wait to make my first alpha!!!!
You’ve been my idol since I started making more advanced bracelets. I have gone from making my self a bracelet, to making a friend a bracelet, to having the whole lunch table a bracelet. So now I have to make like 5 bracelets 😓
oh my god, this thing with putting the leading string into that half knot is SOOO helpful, thank you! I always had the problem of my leading string 'squeezing' the other color and making it kinda wiggly since I pull pretty hard, this will finally help me!
Hi Masha I hope you see my comment and I just wanted to say thanks for your turtorial again. Before you make this video I don't understand alpha bracelets. Thanks again. I'm from Germany and I'm 12 years old. I love your channel and I want to be a part of your January challenge.
Thank you so much Masha, I've been doing macrame for almost 10 years and still did not know how to make these Alpha bracelets, I have had a special order after an almost year long pause and depression, so it was quite an empowering learning experience to make custom designs and learn how to weave "backwards" as I call it, as I have revamped my life. You've been part of this journey and great learning curve and for that I am forever grateful. Thanks for helping me step up my game sistar! All the love to you
hi, i was really hoping you could do another bracelet collection i really liked the one you did adges ago but i want to see how much you have progressed plz do one and like this comment if you think she should. Edit: i have never had this many likes thank you
I have commented this suggestion so much. And I definitely agree with you on this one. This could especially help the people who don't really watch her videos as often as a subscriber would
im working on my first ever alpha and its going so well because of this tutorial!! i'm about a third of the way through and i'm really proud of how it's going
just wanted to thank you for your tutorials! i've made normal bracelets since i was a child, but was always intimidated by alphas. thanks to this video i made my first alpha yesterday! now there's so many more bracelets i want to make. you've helped renew my love for bracelets, so thank you so much, truly! ♥
Thanksss😊 I always struggled with changing strings while keeping the bracelet flat.. I'am just in the making of my Ravenclaw Bracelet for your competition and this helps a lot!👍🏻💙
Oh my god thank you, this is such a revelation for me after years of making these bracelets. I really had troubles with rows going crazy and I always wondered how other people’s bracelets are so uniform . Can’t wait to try these techniques ❤️❤️❤️
I always thought alphas were a nightmare, so I never tried. Then I watched your video last night and it turned out to be nice actually. You have the best videos when it comes to friendship bracelets. Everything's in place, very neat, very detailed, and very easy to follow. Great job girl ❤
I’ve only started making alpha patterns for about 2 months and I’ve had the problem with keeping the bracelets flat! I’m so glad I have found this video and it will definitely help me
Before I started making my second alpha ever I made a research and If I have any doubt about Alphas I just ask Claire, she's super nice and will answer eventually, thanks for the video, it's really clear and straightforward
girl ilysm this is my first time ever making a bracelet and the way u explain things is just perfect. my first bracelet looked pretty good thank you 🫶🫶
I don’t know why but every time I stress about school I always go to your channel and make a bracket because you make me feel safe lol thank you so much! ❤️
thank you so much for this video, it's helped so much. I went from being totally clueless to actually confident and it's all thanks to your amazing explaining. you're a lifesaver, thanks!!
Thank you for this! I tried to watch the original video, but it was in Russian with no english subtitles. This is so helpful and it makes your alphas nicer!
Thank you so, so, so much for this tutorial. I'm not sure if you are going to read this but this video is going to help me so much! This is my first alpha bracelet. I'm so happy with how it is looking so far, thank you again! ❤
let me just say.. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! This was SO helpful!!! Now that I know how to read patterns and change colors, I feel so inspired to find something to make!!! This was so so helpful and as a beginner this was so fantastic!! God bless you!
Thank you so much for this video! I wanted to learn alphas for a very long time, and the tutorials I read were always really complicated, but this helped me a lot! Thank you!
Thanks for the color changing technique! I've already been doing the straight edges knots, but the color changing is super helpful and makes so much sense! I like to use tacky glue on my ends because I can stick them down in multiple directions. I've never had an issue with them coming through but I don't like the way they fuzz up without the glue, especially when you have a bunch in one place. I've also done key chains and reversible bracelets by stitching two alpha patterns together back to back!
I just got back into making bracelets again and your tutorials are by far the best I have come across. I have always made normal patterns, but really wanted to try alphas, and with your help I think I am doing a pretty good job. I am currently working on my first alpha project, the moon phases bracelet, making it a bookmark for my daughter and after watching this video a few times I am confident that I can do this. Thank you for taking your time to really explain and show how to make alpha patterns. You are a great teacher 🤗
I have been doing these bracelets for almost 15 years now..... you just blew my mind with these bits.... how amazing!!!! They have always looked good, a bit messy on the underneath but always turned out pretty good... but these new techniques I'm sooooooo excited to do them!!!! Thank you so much!!!
I've seen so Manny techniques for color changes and this one is by far the best. I've been so used to the normal patterns and I just start qn alpha for a customer and I was getting frustrated but after watching this it definitely helped qlot! Thank you
Never knew this type of bracelet existed before... I grew up making string bracelets but have recently returned to this activity because of work (I run art groups with teen girls in a residential program). They love these bracelets so I have been trying out new patterns for them! This video was so helpful!! :)
I always saw these beautiful Alpha-Patterns on Braceletbook but never actually tried them because I found them really intimidating. After my friend asked me yesterday if I could do this one particular bracelet I stumbled across your video on how to do Alphas and it helped me so much! I'm now about half way done and it turned out really neat thaks to the help of your tutorial! Thank you
You would do the exact same thing, where you would take your last color and weave it through the next color. I haven’t had any probables with colorful alphas. Hopefully that helps.
@Sidney Lauren for some reason whenever I try to do that, you can barely see the colors and it just looks really messy but maybe I just need to work on my technique
Omgggg! I luv this video!!! It helped me alot! When I tried to make alpha bracelets before, it just looked liked a blob of colors with messed up blobs. Now affter watching this video like, 3 times, I understand! I made an alpha bracelet recently and it was a cute little burger and it turned out soo good!! I am literally sooo happy! THANK YOU MASHA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU for making this video !!! I saw this techinque a few days ago on a video in russian but it's so nice to see it explained by you in a language I can understand XD it makes me want to do alphas so badly !! I think it is my new year resolution ;)
this is perfect timing, i was looking at this pattern on bracelet book and wanted to do it but i didn’t know how cuz i’ve never done one of these before, then ur video popped up on my recommended 😂
I did see one person on Instagram who’s alphas didn’t have any loose threads on the back... I wonder if they have a technique to hide them or if they just clip off all the threads 🤔 will need to find them again and ask...
It’s just a theory but maybe they used a technique similar to the one in the video when switching the string (knotting the background color string between the first knot of the new color) but instead of only doing it for the switch they do it with the other knots too if that makes sense?
@@Ghost-angy Yes I just tried it with my alpha and It worked perfectly. I did half of a knot of the color I wanted and then put the one that I want to hide to the side like in the video, but instead of doing it just for adding a color, I continued doing it until I changed color. From there just repeat
thank god i watched this before making an alpha bracelet! i’ve made 3 alpha keychains and they’ve all turned out ok but a little wonky cause of the edges and the the knotting technique i was doing. i’m making a bracelet for my bf so this will be so helpful
Ok... I have a dumb dumb moment I need to admit to. I've been doing alphas for years... years!! I convinced myself that the base strings where the second color and the lead string was the background color. I could never figure out why it took me so long to do a bracelet and why it took so many tries to get it right. After watching this video for thee.. 5th time I realized I was making things harder on myself by using my base strings for my second color.... I tried doing this technique with mindless base strings and two lead strings and... it's a whole new day. It worked but it was the definition of work harder not smarter... the reason I wanted to comment about this is because I feel like that i learned that from a post or a picture or video, some how I got the idea that's how it was done, but lemme just tell you... imma be turning these out for people like nothing now!!
THIS WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL! I have watched countless videos on how to do this and this is the only one that actually makes sense. thank you soooo much!
Thank you for this technique; It works great and BONUS I was able to use it on my normal pattern bracelet today to replace a too short thread!! I wasn't sure it would work, but it did and looks great. I'll never run out of thread again!
This was two years ago but thank you for this!! I made my first alpha (78333) and it turned out surprisingly well. The explanation in very simple and easy to understand. Thank you again :D
You sound like Hermione I love it. I haven't made bracelets in years and years but I'm going to try making keychains for Christmas gifts this year, your explanations are wonderful! Thank you 🥰
How interesting. I’ve never considered changing the way to do the colour changes.... Also, I started typing this while you were still talking and then you said ‘thank you Claire’ and I was like ppffffttt explanation enough right there. She is the alpha master.
I happened across bracelet book, then watched another tutorial video before this one. It was okay. I'm glad I watched it first so I can appreciate how amazing your video is. Great job!
I don’t understand Russian but I went to Fenkoplet account and saw the technique. I understood the visual but not the vocal, obviously 😂 and I got the first half right. Thanks to this video in English I realized my mistake in what I was doing wrong. Great video been trying to find one in English or in Chinese since those are the only two languages that I know! 😂
Thank you sm for clearly showing the “weaving main string through the accent colour string”, im new to alphas and all other tutorials I found make the bracelet literally 3D and the mess at the back is so annoying.. so thank yooooou 💜💜
Excellent explanation of how to change colors and keep edges straight! Being able to clearly see exactly what you're talking about being done is super helpful! Thank you so much ^_^ liked & subbed
Thank you for this video! I used to make friendship bracelets with my ex best friend and now that I’m in quarantine I’m going to make me and my new bestie alpha bracelets this video was super helpful

✨ Special thank you to Claire (@claires_wears_spam on Instagram) for the huge help in figuring out this technique ✨
Technically, Fenkoplet was the first one to come up with the idea, Claire just broadcasted it to everyone 🧐 so you should probably credit her too
sarah zhao she’s not crediting who started it, she’s crediting who she found out this technique from and who helped her further. That’s how it’s done, you credit who you found it from.

Is one 8 yard skein of embroidery thread enough to make this bracelet I mean the blue btw
Murron Cook should be
I used to be obsessed with alphas and now I’m a beginner again 🤣
Same here. Made them like crazy 10 years ago and now I’m relearning everything again haha
Sammmeee
I never heard about them until yesterday! I only have two colours! But i want to make many bracelets.. any suggestions?
•Riana• pattern #25153 on braceletbook!
SensitiveWeirdo #34719 is super duper cute! the bracelet uses a third color for shadows but i’m sure you can just leave it out :)
12:46 normal color change
19:04 color change right on the edge
(this time guide helps me when I forget how to change colors)
Thanks for letting us know as well!
Ty
How ironic, the day before this was posted I was complaining about how my alphas are never flat😂
Hopefully never again! :)
Fantastic! This was so helpful, thank you! 😊
hahaha
Oh dear, my ability to read, I thought that said “Flat Earther Bracelets”
i like how even tho you thought it said that, you continued to watch LMAO
🤣🤣🤣
is that why you clicked lol
@@the_mkmb5649 I wanted to see if they were being serious lmao
That’s amazing.
Now I need to figure out how to not break my back making these lmao
After every few mins, stretch.
Get a really high up table or stack world record books/medical books/textbooks.
Try taping your bracelet to a book/binder, then sit in a chair or bed with your legs up. Works great for me!
me 😭😭
put it on a clipboard and sit knees up on your bed. it works wonders.
I just downloaded braceletbook yesterday and feel like a total noob. Now I’m here to learn how to make an alpha bracelet after making normal bracelets for 4 years.Yes, I lived under a rock.I never knew there were alpha bracelets.😭

Charge em 10 bucks a bracelet, that’ll calm them down

I have a small tiny business and charge them 10 bucks and I still have ups and downs, and some haters and copycats
Oh, same

My new year's resolution is to atleast try to make an alpha this year
Good luck!

What did you do when you had multiple color switches in a row, like with Earth in your pattern?
You would do the exact same thing, where you would take your last color and weave it through the next color. I haven’t had any probables with colorful alphas. Hopefully that helps.

Was gonna start an alpha keychain today, good thing I saw this video first before starting. This will really help improve my alpha thank you so much 💕
This was so helpful! I just started triangle ends to a bracelet similar to this. Can’t wait to use the technique.
I hope you make a book about this. I'd buy it! The books I see online aren't very modern...
With someone who has learning disabilities this video is so helpful I haven’t started an Alpha yet but so helpful thank you
So glad I could help! Have fun making bracelets!
I quit making these a while ago, but this really wants me to go back and start again!
I cut my unused lead string too. Before I cut though I use a double knot with a neighboring string to secure the strings.
horsecharmer93 that’s actually really smart. I’m going to start doing that.
I've used this technique by deciphering the russian video on ClaireWearsSpam's saved stories,but thank you for making it completely clear!!
When this is all that's keeping you sane while having covid and quarantined. Thank you so much! You rock :)
Thank you, I was going to make an alpha bracelet for my dad and I was super confused on how to make one, but now I can! Thanks again!
Thanks to you I made the same pattern and it actually came out good! I’m rewatching to make another one after it’s been a while

I know I’m super late in commenting, but thank you so much Masha Knots for teaching me to make alphas. I love your channel!! Keep the videos coming :)
I happened across bracelet book, then watched another tutorial video before this one. It was okay. I'm glad I watched it first so I can appreciate how amazing your video is. Great job!
I don’t understand Russian but I went to Fenkoplet account and saw the technique. I understood the visual but not the vocal, obviously 😂 and I got the first half right. Thanks to this video in English I realized my mistake in what I was doing wrong.
Great video been trying to find one in English or in Chinese since those are the only two languages that I know! 😂
Thank you sm for clearly showing the “weaving main string through the accent colour string”, im new to alphas and all other tutorials I found make the bracelet literally 3D and the mess at the back is so annoying.. so thank yooooou 💜💜
