@luvvrnina yeah, sorry about that. I might have a better more detailed explanation on the very first comment?

Anyway it's like how you would shape a triangle end except you use the leading string instead of base strings to make those 5 knots

@Quindin Sorry, there's no tutorial. However the good news is I think it's fairly simple to make. It's like any other shaped pattern up to row 36.

For the first 5 knots of row 36, make those forward-backward knots and before each knot add the base string(s) from any previous knot(s) you have already made from that row.
Gently tug on each individual base string while pushing those knots up into place.

The rest of it is like any other shaped pattern until you get to the tail where you can do the same trick for those first 3 knots of row 44

@carbar you have to hide the loose strings in the knots at the edges.

Why is it falling apart? What did you do? Did you try to cut the loose strings? That could be the reason why it's falling apart.

I recommend going to youtube and searching for the shaped frog bracelet or the shaped evil eye bracelet to learn how to knot shaped alphas. It's the same technique.

@dracula you could also do a Chinese staircase, forward knot over all the strings repeatedly

@dracula you could follow the pattern, one knot over 4 strings , one knot over 8 strings. You could make those backward forward and forward backward knots. I did that on the right side of #140659 but I think square knots look a lot nicer

@goldflower Ok! if I didn't want to make square knots, what would I do instead?

@dracula if you want to yes. Actually I forgot to add 2 strings to make square knots on this one so I did backward forward knots over all the strings but I like the look of square knots better. I did square knots on #144531

@goldflower Ok thanks! so i should just do square knots before the shark?

@dracula I think that should work as long as you make the first white knot over 4 strings and the grey knot over 8 strings. I just made square knots over all the strings for the bracelet part when I made it
