Ive been making a lot of alphas recently and i use the straight edge tequnique but whenever there are color changes the edge bulge out. Does anyone know how to solve this because I see many bracelets that arent bulgy.

Do you mean colour changes right at the edge or do you mean when there is a colour change somewhere in the row?

@halokiwi I mean like when there is a chunk of color like a strawberry or a balloon or something and then arround that it bulges but when i go back to the background color it gets skinny again

Oh, ok, I was a bit confused because "straight edges technique" is a term used to describe a technique that makes the edges of the bracelet straighter/smoother.What could help in your case is the "flat alpha technique". MashaKnots has a great video on it. When using the flat alpha technique you'll get smoother colour switches and avoid bumps. |
