Hello everyone!I'm trying to make an alpha bracelet, #19454! When doing the blue part I ran out of wires, I cut a little and now it's very small! Is there any way to solve and finish the bracelet or the only solution is to start again?? |

Do you mean your base strings are too short? If that’s the case, you can replace them by pulling them up and behind the bracelet, taping new base strings to your workspace, and then knotting onto the new strings as if they’re already part of the bracelet. I recommend only replacing a couple base strings at once, though. I also recommend keeping them taped down for at least 5-10 rows after you replace them, because it’s easy to accidentally pull them out if they’re not taped down.

No, I was talking about the thread I make the knots, the thread that makes the bracelet. But thanks so much for this tip!!

You can get another bundle of string of that color and add it back in.

Yes, like @KuteKat said, you can replace your leading string by doing the same thing you’d do for a color switch, you just add a string that’s the same color as the one you’re replacing. I usually have to replace my background string quite a few times when I make an alpha
