CLEAN BACK ALPHA TUTORIAL [CC] || Friendship Bracelets

[@sparklight0964]

I’m definitely not ready for this level of complexity but this technique is super interesting! Once I learn segment knotting and get more comfortable with normal alpha’s etc I’ll try this technique some day

[@cori4727]

YES! I have been waiting for this! I've tried looking at other tutorials but I've never been able to follow them. Yours are always so clear and easy to follow for me!

[@katie-allen]

So true! I can watch ten other videos with no idea what’s going on, and then on one of Masha Knots’ videos I get it instantly!

[@violetviverson8340]

Before I saw this I thought you had to hide the string through every single knot. I always thought it was such a waste of thread. Glad I understand now 😅

[@estossala1]

This is fantastic! I have to say, everything friendship bracelet related I have learned thanks to your videos and lots of practice. Thank you so much for teaching us this beautiful art and pastime.

[@Add_350]

WOW, this is such a cool technique!!!! I am soooo glad this tutorial came while I was already in the middle of making an alpha and I just tried it out and looks awesome. Thank you so much Marsha!!! 😍😎😎😎

[@VampyreFoxy]

Thank you for this very clear and helpful tutorial. I started making alphas and it always bothered me how they looked on the back. This technique is so cool. Thanks for sharing and explaining so well

[@user-nk7si1vb5n]

Omg you're such a saviour ❤❤ whenever I wanna make bracelets I just jump to your videos

[@mariapluta1609]

Thanks Maria 😚 you are the best. ( i hope to see a - making a bookmark with this little whole on top - video from you some day 🤗🥰)

[@azraelthanos9400]

Nice ! I'd integrated your straight alpha technique for non-background strings, but I didn't handle vertical switches that well, thank you for the precision. I find it funny that you emphasise the esthetics of a clean back when I've always thought it was a must for something that's rubbing on your skin for so long... but maybe I'm a bit extra about not taking off friendship bracelets until they fall off ^^'

[@elliottwood5423]

The idea of threading inside the knot is really interesting, I wonder if you could use this to thread something else into the knot, like a physical object like a needle, or maybe even making a 3d bracelet that threads into the knots and goes perpendicular to the actual bracelet

[@alyssabradley5168]

Thank you so much for this!! In the future can you please do the hole in the beginning to make it a book mark?

[@denieciag1267]

Great tutorial as always! If its okay with you, would you be able to make a tutorial on how to do one with many color switches?

[@rais14]

queen of explaining things so well.

[@babybunny3002]

This'll be real nice for Keychains! Thank you so much

[@victoriacox4527]

OMG YAY I'M SO HAPPY TO FINALLY SEE A TUTORIAL ABOUT THIS

[@chuchuchie]

[@conard121]

this was mind blowing

[@kerstyncraft]

This is very useful! Thank you!!

[@taydoesnailsss]

You are so smart!!!

[@emilylinares989]

Debo mencionar que no soy de habló inglés, pero realmente pude comprender tu técnica, yo estaba un poco perdida, porque encontré esa forma de anudar en varios intentos pero no podía ejecutarlo correctamente aún, gracias a ti, ya que sé como hacerlo correctamente. ♡

[@TheSparkleina]

Oh that’s so clever!

[@chloetsui4009]

Omg ive been waiting for this!!! Love your vids masha :)

[@N_the_N]

Thank you for showing it! I was kinda confused on what to do with the strings on the back, but after watching your video it’s all cleared up for me!)

[@MashaKnots]

Glad I could help!

[@anniemoon350]

I like this. Will have to try this!

[@ceramicfrog1]

I was waiting for this, thank you! 😊

[@ALettyL]

Ohh this gave me such good ideas!!

[@faithhopelove001]

Thanks so much!! 😊

[@dizzyiz93]

wonderful demonstration! thanks so much :)

[@sarahcalderongutierrez1009]

Looks very neat but extremely annoying to make lol

[@corylcreates]

thank you! I've always wanted to try alpha patterns, but I hate the way the backs look.

[@ciapciokuwu]

omg you are a life saver

[@marybabalola6232]

Wow- will defo use this in future

[@lovellmendez2207]

This....this is very interesting and intricate. I like how you took your time and explained this, thank you. Am I ready for this level of bracelet. Absolutely not! Am I gonna try it regardless? Pfft, YES.

[@starblaze5813]

This tutorial is great and I was gonna try it on my newest project but it eventually has 6 switches in one row 😅. I don’t mind the complexity, I’m more concerned about the size of the knots with that many colors XD

[@thisjoman]

I reinvented this technique because I wanted a good looking back alpha pattern. Instead of inserting from the middle and cutting the thread that still in the middle, I just run the thread from start to end and it looks cleaner.

[@awsu0]

thank u for 1 month skillshare ♥️😍

[@drewkidd8357]

Amazing, thank you. Love all your tutorials.

[@Mellow_Music11]

How do you know which direction is which? I tried with a different pattern and the knots would get weird as if I went in the wrong direction. Do you care to make another video more detailed and longer to explain more about the "clean back alpha" ? Please and thank you it would be REALLY helpful!

[@mariak_7272]

But where I can find similar patterns with different designs?

[@mariposa.2507]

great tutorial, thank you! but i guess it can be really really tricky if you often have to chance colors... where can I find the pattern with the lines for the clear back?

[@Mellow_Music11]

How would you figure this out for your pattern of choice? How do I figure this out on all other patterns? Can you make a video on: How to do clean Alpha back on any pattern? Or something a long the lines of that? @MashaKnots

[@user-tl2zw8el4c]

I love how clean the back is with this technique but cutting off the strings later won't affect the bracelet? I'm wondering 12:42

[@madnighthawk7009]

You are an amazing teacher!

[@Cindy-dw2fi]

Can you please please do a checkerboard alpha tutorial?

[@kdooosh1998]

Great but I'm not sure if I will try so far. just now started in alpha pattern this sound tough ):

[@turtlerabbitkim9271]

Is there any easier way to map the string for other patterns or is the clean alpha patten available on braceletbook.🤔

[@mrs.skippy4659]

if it's a bracelet for wearing, would you suggest not cutting them so close to the bracelet? or are you 100% confident it won't come undone?

[@heidicameron2015]

Cute nails❤️❤️❤️

[@reynaortiz2418]

I have a question what if I ran out of yarn and I’m in the middle of the row ? How do I add the same color yarn?

[@Cindy-dw2fi]

If you have an alpha pattern with just two colors would you hide each color your not using within every knot in the pattern? That way all the knots in the entire bracelet would be the same size. I’m trying to figure out how to do a checkerboard alpha. Like the Vans brand checkerboard…

[@dinekbuilder1180]

what should I do if I have more than two colors?

[@lovellmendez2207]

Btw, are the patterns available like in video on bracelet book

[@DenizzVarmis]

Can we just glue a piece of fabric to hide the back? i really dont have the skills to do this 😭

[@LatelierdeMallo]

Bonjour Pourrais je avoir le schéma complet de ce modèle svp ?

[@Creationsbyfrogi]

Me using pattern number 160516😅

[@cassiasobre9278]

Ensine devagar e tudo tem mt gente que nao sabe, e coloque legenda portugues

[@user-hj7zb1hk2n]

I have never made an alpha pattern bracelet before but i wanna start with this technique🥹
