SpiderGwan: @POV it’s the first time ur doing (well not the first if ur considering three frogging accidents) a fairly nice keychain. BUT because u chose the CLEAN ALPHA back way and joined the dark side. It turned a bit wavy. And maybe also because the keychain couldn’t contain all the base threads properly. Do u continue because it’s good besides all that?

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 The tricky part when we set out with the intention of making the "clean back" the display side is to make all the calculations necessary before getting started, if we're making a pattern where it matters. The final image is going to end up "mirrored" if we follow the pattern (you might've noticed in those examples that the banana is facing the other direction, and the mug handles are on the other side).

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 I don't know if it's a matter of my relative lack of talent, or if it's due to the variety of thread I'm using. Maybe someday, I'll get my paws on a better kind and find out. But in any case, it was one of those epiphany shower thoughts I experienced later: "Alrightey then--just roll with it!"

15 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 After putting it to use for the first time, I turned over the work in progress to snip away the threads that were no longer in play, and noticed to my surprise that things were looking sharper there than on the intended display side.

15 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 It wasn't a matter of a "special knot" per se, but an example of taking a somewhat humbling experience and rolling with it. What you see in those two example is what was intended to be the non-display, worn against the wrist side of Masha's "clean back" technique.

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 It *does* make sense, and I'm sincerely flattered that you noticed. ❤️

bugs_b1te: Similar issue to the crecent-moon thing, but for normals. When I make a triangle start, my rows start out pointy and beautiful, my V shape gets more and more shallow, so by the end of the pattern the V has turned rather squishy and wide. It's visible in my pics of #73931 and #35270. Any rhyme or reason to this

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK no no not how you started them, they look super smooth if that makes sense.. did you use a certain knot?

1 day, 2 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 #203517 was probably done the same way.

1 day, 2 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 That is, how I started them off? If memory serves (those two were sold a while ago, after all), given the relatively low number of base strings, I'd've just made a standard tear drop loop with 8 on one end and 7+1 on the other, then using the leading string to make one big loop at the bottom of the ends of the two bundles to bring everything together. From there, a tapering shaped start until that "crescent moon" effect had straightened itself out.

winter_1: @Nainika Nooooooooooooooooooo that sucks

GiuseppeK: (Aaaaaaand, it seems I lied--it was "creationsbyclaira" who opened my eyes to the concept of "shaped starts" for alphas.)

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 Or, another idea: since 30 strings is quite a handful, maybe a "double triangle start" would help getting the bundle set up more manageable.

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 For #174492, I'd recommend a solid color to "bookend" the project: getting it set up before we start making the flames, and then ending with the same color as we taper it all off. I'll DM you the link to the video from when I learned "shaped starts" (it was almost certainly Masha).

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 There's probably no good way to un-wonkify that one--probably way too much hassle to try undoing it all and starting over. I'd suggest adding the whole thing to your scrap pile for future use. We bought ourselves some experience.

1 day, 4 hours ago

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK thank you I’m trying to make pattern 174492 but I miscounted the strings before i could fix it 💀

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 Okay, I see what you mean (and patting myself on the back for having a pretty good idea what the issue is without seeing it first). The use of red, I believe, was a clever move I'd never considered before. 👍

1 day, 4 hours ago

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK thank you

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 If the pattern *doesn't* give us that grace period of a few rows of the same color just so we can get things established, maybe ignore the pattern just for a bit until we're set? No self-promotion intended, just using the photo for #204863 as an example (using the darker blue just to get things started).

1 day, 4 hours ago

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK okay I’m changing it now and if u see the orange is where I was and the red is was I added to compensate but it still looks wonky any advice? I was trying to duplicate my pattern of 96019 how I started that (I posted a pic to that pattern)

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 If the situation is what I think is going on, that crescent moon effect will improve as we add more rows. If the pattern you chose starts off with at least a few rows of the same color without the real fun and games starting too soon, just keep knotting (and keep 'em tight).

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 Without seeing things for myself (and since you didn't specifically mention it), are you using the "shaped start" for an alpha? 30 strings is certainly a handful...

1 day, 4 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @BlueBug44 Can you make your pfp a photo of the current situation? And maybe DM me the link to the tutorial you're using?

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK okay so I’m making one that has 30 base string and im following a yt tutorial on a teardrop loop start for it and its going good but its very fanned out like the bottom is shaped like a crescent moon instead of straight.
