@SShkz1380 @smplyjedi you can check out the videos posted to #89623 and #49390 to learn how to tie shaped alphas.

Basically you just hide the unused base strings in the knots at the edges. It works the same way as triangle starts/ends.

@gerardway I've never tried it but I got to know about a way from someone else
So what you want to do is use the base strings to make knots onto the leading string for the final line. I've not tried it yet myself but I hope it helps you.

@Fizzah do you know if it's possible to end it like that without cutting strings,like some closure

@gerardway yes, you should have done 24 base strings, because 24 is the maximum width of knots in this pattern.

Please don't swear btw. This website is supposed to be child-friendly 🙂

@Clouds975 did I fuck up if I did the put the bunch string part only on the right side. I'm at row 52 and finished till the 3 white knots im not sure what to do. Idk how to widen it. Should I have put the 4 strings at both sides?
