For me i found printing the pattern helps, to have it clipped close to my work makes it so i don't have to look down on my phone and wonder which line i was at. I also like to have all my colours picked out to begin with and have all my supplies close to hand. It's stupid but practice is what helps the most 😉

I found that being consistent and having a good rhythm makes it go faster. If you have music playing or just focusing on finishing helps to.

The more you practice, the quicker it becomes. I am still kinda slow at doing alphas but I am learning over time that I am getting them done quicker. I also think that the less amount of color switches there are, the faster you can complete them!

sometimes if i have a big alpha i put it into stitch fiddle because it has a progress tracker so you always know where you’re at

It’s easier to be quicker if you have a bloc of time like 30 minutes or more. Sometimes i also fixe a number of strings to do per day, it motivates me 🙂

DONT RUSH! Rushing just makes you slower as you make mistakes and screw everything up. Take your time and do a good job.

@AlmaLlama I would say pre cutting and starting the bracelet strings helps a ton, that way you can just finish the bracelet and pick up a new one to start without stressing about colors, length, etc. This helps a lot when you want to make a big chunk of bracelets rlly fast! Hope this helps!
