hey guys! i made my first ever alpha today and it went really well except for one thing. my pattern seemed to get super stretched out and elongated, if that makes sense? the bracelet ended up being flat and straight but for some reason the pattern got stretched out. pls help 😭

That happened to me when i first started making alphas. It will get better with practice and also try to tie your knots tighter. Make sure it is as pushed up as possible.

Make sure to tighten your knots and make them consistent. Using the straight edge technique also helps 😊

sorry to be repetitive but i had that problem too and making your knots tighter and consistent helps a lot! also make sure the thread you're using isn't abnormally large bc i've had issues with that as well. good luck!
