Ok, that toothpick thing is genius. 🙌🏽 Totally trying that on my next....next alpha. 😁 I just started one before watching his.

aesthetically born I’m using a different knotting technique it’s ‘upside down’ so to speak. So the back of my work looks like the front of a normal alpha. You can check out my mountain alpha tutorial if you want more info on it! 😉

When I use an embroidery floss that is slightly thicker, I remove one string (using 5 instead of 6) and reuse the one I removed for embroidery, or multicoloured fractionned string

For the upsidedown alpha method, how tight are you supposed to pull your knots? When i knot alphas the normal way, i pull fairly tight but when i knot upside down its really loose because im scared it will get ruined.😅

I have to say I'm rather confused about the first tip. If you place your strings on a toothpick, how are you gonna tie it? There's no loop, no braids?

Ur not supposed to have ties the toothpick stays there after or u take it out

For the first tip for this particular bracelet it will be a mini charm with the intent to hang it. But if you didn’t fold your strings and left tails there you could technically untie from the toothpick and do braids on either end.

I don’t know if that this happens to anyone else but when I do normal patterns and sometime alphas the back of the bracelet looks like the upside down method?
@Lauren-xu9kh

Kylie Bui yes that is how it is supposed to look it’s called an upside down alpha because you make the knots upside down so the front is the back and the back is the front if that makes sense

My knots are at an angle, how do I make them more vertical?
@MegMakesCrafts

Practise, try to take note of which type of knot is behaving a certain way. You can also play with moving your base strings a bit while tying - for example the opposite way your knot leans. You can also play with different types of base strings which may help!

Not trying to hate but could you figure out a way to not have the tripod in the frame?
@MegMakesCrafts
4 жыл бұрын
Clary's Adventure unfortunately, as of right now with the equipment I have, the only way for me to do that is zoom in. I only use my phone to record and to zoom in as much as necessary to completely clip the tripod out I’d have to sacrifice considerable image quality. So it’s not as aesthetically pleasing but the clarity is better and I think that’s more important than whether you see the corner of the tripod. 🤷🏻♀️

what thread do you use for your base string? it looks different from normal embroidery thread

I haven’t looked at this video in a while but if it doesn’t look like regular embroidery floss it’s probably Aunt Lydia’a Fashion 3 crochet thread.
