How do you make your knots tight? The one I did if I lift it up and look at it I can see through many spots because they were not tight enough? Can anyone help me? 😐

I would suggest pulling the string all the way up and once you're done with the row push it up with a ruler. I haven't really faced this issue because my knots have always been tight but I've watched many videos and this is what they do. This also could be because you might be skipping strings?

Make sure that you pull the first half of the knot tight before making the second half. The first half of the knot determines its placement, the second half secures it in place.

It is completely normal, that there will be some light shining through, if you hold a bracelet against the light. I would only worry, if the holes are visible even without you doing so.
