Hi,I really want to make an Alpha but I have some questions, what happens when you run out of string and you need more also how should I add new strings efficiently? Thanks!!

When a string runs out you add it in like how you would with another color. I also recommend using flat and straight edges technique

if this is your first alpha i would highly recommend doing the flat alpha technique. if you learn to do it that way from the get go it makes things a lot simpler and makes alphas look a lot better! also once you get the hang of it i would try the straight edges technique as well

@landrenee Thank you so much! This is my first alpha and I am confused what the flat alpha technique is also the straight edges technique. If you see this could you possibly describe in simpler words for my tiny brain?😁 Thanks!

my first alpha was #36085 but i would recommend something with only 2 or 3 colors. masha knots on youtube has great tutorials on both and she can explain better than i can 😊

You can watch this if you need help replacing some strings. You basically just add it in and knot over it
