I’m intermediate at making bracelets and want to start making alpha bracelets and I know all the knots and stuff but I’m confused on how to start them. The pattern just kind of starts and like I usually just tie a loop for regular patterns so I’m confused please help!!

The way you start an alpha depends on whether it’s a wallhanging or bracelet. If you’re doing a bracelet I recommend doing the triangle start but if it’s a wallhanging ppl usually make them on a wooden dowel.

Here’s a video tutorial on alpha triangle starts : )

What happens to the loose strings on the back? And what happens if you have trouble repeating the pattern? Please help! I've never done an alpha pattern before! All help needed 😭

with the strings in the back you can just cut them and leave them like that and/or use glue to hold them in place. there is also the clean back for alpha, here is a tutorial https://youtu.be/JCXIzmm0f3c?si=l22Wsd_xIbUjenLT

On youtube you can easily find explanatory videos for beginners, i recommend this one by masha knot : https://youtu.be/_YVFAX9sacw?si=W9Iln_MuiPdVD9hq

and what do you mean by having trouble repeating the pattern ?
