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.)

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.

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).

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.

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

BlueBug44: @GiuseppeK thank you

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).

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)
58 minutes 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).

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...

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. I’ve don’t this technique with smaller patterns but its never done this 😭
