Hello, I was wanting as my next project to be an alpha bookmark, yet I'm not too sure on how many strings to use, for I don't want it to be to wide or thin.
If anyone can help, that would be amazing, thanks! ❤️

I would put the keyword "bookmark" in the search! I bet you will find some really cool patterns that were designed to be bookmarks!

I find anything between 20 to 30 good for bookmarks, but it also depends on your string size and how firm your knots are.

@jukey - very helpful, exactly what I was asking for.

Thank you both for you answers, both were helpful. ❤️

I recently did a bookmark with 21 base strings and loved the thickness. I normally don’t go under 18 because to me there is a fine line between bookmarks and bracelets that can easily be crossed.

@1023342234 Thank you! You shared a photo of the pattern ( I think its the pattern, I apologize if I'm wrong) but the thickness looked perfect for a bookmark!
thanks again! 🙂

It probably depends on the patterns that you use
