I think #24784, #1654, letter bracelets, #25016, and #25002 are pretty easy alphas to start with. Alphas with 14 base strings or less and 2-4 colors are generally pretty easy.

The first proper alpha I did was #25623 because 1. I loved the pattern 2. It had a good number of strings to start off with. I did try a 5 string alpha( that turned out really badly because it was so thin 😂) but that was just to get used to the knotting. The 10 string was about right because it wasn't to thick or thin. There also aren't that many colour changes in #25623, but there are enough to get used to it. I also think #30722 is quite easy and is super cute!

Masha Knots @Racoon on bb has an awesome beginner tutorial on pattern #19454, that's how I learned to make alphas! I highly recommend her youtube channel!
