I know that aloha knots are going to be lopsided because your making forward then backward rows, but how can I help it? (This might not make sense 😂)

I do not know how to answer that question but I will take a guess on what you meant. 1. flat alpha technique 2. pull your knots tighter 3. make sure the last string you switched from is not peeking out 4. try the straight edge technique 🙂 |

adding onto all of that, try to make sure all of ur strings are the same thickness in ur alpha bracelet. if ur question is more abt how each individual alpha knot is tilted and how to make them straight, i would recommend making slightly looser knots and then fluff them up a little bit which will lead them to be a bit more square shaped.

Do you maybe mean that all strings in a row of forward-knots lean to the left and all knots in backward rows lean to the right?So that your knot structure looks basically like this: / / / / / \ \ \ \ \ / / / / / |

@annomaly I think then the knots are too tight. But I'm not really qualified to answer that since all my alphas have that same problem. But I do love my knots as tight as possible...
