I am new to this site and love it! I have been looking at bracelets galore for some ideas for Christmas for my family and friends. I am having an issue reading the patterns, though. I understand them when they are straight (as shown in the Alpha Tutorial), but most of the pictures or patterns only show how the knots should be made or they are shown in a diagonal. How do I make it so that they are straight like in the Alpha Tutorial so that I can understand it better? Please help and thank you for those who answer my question.

you have to make a straight up double knot right away and keep going straight with them then instead of getting another strand you keep using the first one and then do backwards knots
