Here’s a tutorial for alpha triangle ends with an odd number of strings https://www.braceletbook.com/tutorials/133_shaped-starts-and-ends-for-odd-stringed-alphas/
Here’s another one that also shows how to make the loop https://www.braceletbook.com/tutorials/96_macrame-loop-tutorial-for-alpha-patterns/

@oceanknot I meant for the triangle ends to not be the technique of normal patterns but thank you

This tutorial goes a bit in the direction what you are looking for because it is basically the same technique https://www.braceletbook.com/tutorials/130_shaped-keychain-tutorial/

But I don't think just that one is enough to understand how to make triangle ends. That's why I try to write it down:

To tie triangle ends row-by-row each row you need to make more knots. You can achieve that by knotting around several strings at once and letting the strings you knot around less each row.

Let's say you have 8 base strings. You separate them into two groups of four. Then you make a knot onto each group
4 - 4
In the next row you take one string from each group and put it in the middle. Now you knot onto the groups as well as the individual strings. You make 4 knots.
3 - 1 - 1 - 3
In the next row you again put two strings in the middle. You make 6 knots
2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2
In the next row you again put two strings in the middle. You now make 8 knots and have reached the full width
1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1

If you have an uneven amount of strings the only difference is that you start with 3 knots in the first row because you put that one uneven string in the middle. Let's say you have 9 strings. Those would be your rows:
4 - 1 - 4 (3 knots)
3 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 3 (5 knots)
2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2 (7 knots)
1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 (9 knots)
