I never made alphas so i literally have zero idea on how to start and continue lol so i tried to find tutorials on UA-cam but yours is the only one that made sense to me, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Literally saw a bracelet pattern on Pinterest for the first time yesterday, now I’m here determined to make my family and friends as many bracelets as possible 🤞🤞
I used to be OBSESSED with making alpha bracelets and keychains etc. Over a decade ago and I'm trying to get back into it now but couldn't remember how the hell I used to do it. As I watched this video it all came back to me! Thanks so much for making this it's so helpful!
Dude that was the best video!! Just today I decided to learn alpha patterns, and no video described it normally, but yours was so detailed and I could see and hear you clearly which is very good. Thank you so much!!!!
I've made hundreds of bracelets from bracelet patterns on braceletbook that are normal patterns. I have been making bracelets for a few years now, and I was always in the mindset I'm never going to be able to make an alpha bracelet. I've even tried watching tutorials, and I still didn't understand. After watching your tutorial at 1:05am in the morning, it has inspired me to try making an alpha bracelet. (later on of course ;) Your tutorial was by far the best out there that I've seen. Thank you so much!
I know this video is 10 months old but, I finally got the hang of this because of you. So thank you so very much. I was about to give up on this craft.
I finally found a hobby i like and i’m wanting to expand from bracelets. alphas are so cool and i’m so happy to be able to understand and learn thanks to your video. thank you so much for taking the time and being like a friend almost
this was so sweet 🥺🥺 so glad you’re able to learn a new hobby!! you really can go a long ways with the relatively simple alpha skill set. happy creating :)
I've been intimidated by alphas. And until now every pattern I've seen people do comes out cockeyed. Yours looks normal and very neat. Love that. Thank u for taking the time and sharing.
Thanks for watching! Mine certainly did not come out looking this way -- only after several years and hundreds of bracelets do they look that neat. Consider it motivation to keep knotting! :)
Im maybe a bit late but I just started making those bracelets and was super intimidated by alpha bracelets.. now I just made my very first one and I’m impressed with how easy it was with this video! Thank you so much
I've been doing normal bracelets for some time now and wanted to learn how to make alphas, yours is the only one that actually helped me!! You're a great teacher, thank you so much 😊
GUYS MAKE SURE YOU ALWAYS GET THE RIGHT NUMBER OF STRING!!! i started a surprise red panda bracelet for my sister and i was so confused because nothing was lining up. I used the wrong number of strings and now I have to redo it 🙂
I've been making bracelets for some years now but could not understand how to make alphas, your tutorial was very easy to understand and I feel ready to try my hand at them now, thank you ! :)
@@AlexInnovations It was !! I've made an alpha bracelet, a small banner and am making a second banner right now :D It's really fun to do, so thank you again !
This was so helpful! I just started making basic bracelets yesterday but my end goal is to make some cute alpha bracelets and this video definitely helped everything click for me! Thank you so much 🧡🧡💛💛 But yeesh, I dont understand why people are saying this is not helpful because you didnt go through evey single row of the bracelet? She shows you how to do everything you'll need guys... smh
yay thank you so much!! and yeah, i use the one bracelet to demonstrate different techniques you can do in a bracelet, but it’s not a video on how to make that specific bracelet :,)
AHH TYSM!! i’ve been so confused by any video that i’ve watched so far but this one was so helpful and easy! i just started making bracelets and i really wanted to try alpha patterns but they scared me so much bc of how complicated they seemed but you really explained everything and now it seems pretty easy to do so thank you!!!
Thank you so much for making this easy to understand, and for including captions. It really helped me finally understand how to read these and set them up. I did have to rewatch some parts, but that's just because your voice is so soothing that I zoned out a little! 😅
this was very helpful even though I've been making alphas for a while. also the plaid alpha in the beginning, was it imspired by harry styles cardigan?
Heyy! Ur prolly not gonna see this but tysm! I have been trying to do these for too long but the other ones are too hard and I just stress out and start crying! But this one made it SO easy! TYSMMM
Thank you!!!! I am trying my first alpha braclet today and this is making it so much easier to understand! I probably picked out a way to advanced pattern but im try
This video helped me so much , it’s amazing , I also realized we’re close to each other (same city) , I love supporting locals. Now I’ll get to make my friend a good luck bracelet. Wish me luck, I hope it’s cute.
im gonna do my first alpha ever, i maybe chose a more difficult pattern, but i really liked it... anyways i guess i will just keep going back to this video and i hope i will manage SOMEHOW :D
Hello! Can you please (if you can) do a tutorial on the pink and turquoise bracelet at 0:30 ? I have been watching your videos for a white and it’s safe to say you’re very talented! I love how your tutorials are always super clear and easy to follow through. Keep it up :D 💕
Thanks for this tutorial ! It's really helpful ! I'm all new to this and I've already made some kind of braided pattern bracelets and it looked quite fine but here with the alpha, my stitches look like //// and the next row goes the other way even tho I'm pulling the thread straight up... what can I do ?

um hi! is alpha a part of macrame?
@@erichan2373 I think so yes but I am also pretty amateur. I am good at normals but I am still getting the hang of alphas.
This is very much true it is very clear and understandable.
Looks like macrame uses the same tipe of knots 🤔 and from the back it really looks like macrame!
Literally saw a bracelet pattern on Pinterest for the first time yesterday, now I’m here determined to make my family and friends as many bracelets as possible 🤞🤞
Update???
Have I made alphas before? Yes. Do I know how to make them? Yes. Am I still watching the video? Yes 💕
Haha same
awww thank you so much!!
I've always been intimidated by friendship bracelets as they seem so intricate. This video was really easy to understand thank you so much :D
Yay, I'm so glad to hear that! :)
I've been making them wrong all along 🤦the forward-backward knots make it so much neater!!
one way or the other isn’t wrong haha, this way is just a bit nicer!! :) glad to help!!!

Me: looks at my five perfectly well-made keychains just from this weekend

oh no!!!
@@AlexInnovations oh hi Alex um I want to say thank you for the flat bracelet video now I know not to do it on the ends 😀

@@AlexInnovations if the alpha is like an 8 by 9, can you just keep doing that pattern over and over again with the same strings to make a bracelet?

@@AlexInnovations thank you sm!!
How did you decide how far down to go when you were taping the base strings to your workspace? How much string to leave hanging out of the tape?
Uhhhh your bracelets are sooooo Good ♥️that's a good thing by the way
aw thank you!!
Hii! ilysmm your vids are so helpful
thank you!
Thanks for this tutorial ! It's really helpful ! I'm all new to this and I've already made some kind of braided pattern bracelets and it looked quite fine but here with the alpha, my stitches look like //// and the next row goes the other way even tho I'm pulling the thread straight up... what can I do ?
hmm… maybe try doubling your base strings to make them thicker, so the stitches are wider and look more square than a thin rectangle! good luck!
Thankyou for the tutorial that was very helpful ❤️
yay, so glad it was helpful! thanks for watching! :)
@@AlexInnovations hey can you please tell me , if I want to do a 50x50 pattern ..how many thread should I take?
Thank you very much the video is very helpful❣️
THIS IS AMAZING
16:08 Forward knot color switch

They certainly can!
