If you are using the flat alpha colour switch instead use the regular colour switch if you need to do a colour switch right at the edge.

This might be hard to understand, but what I do is do a forward/backward knot on the string before the color switch so it doesn't stick out in that direction, and then when I bring in the next color I make sure that I'm bringing in the string from the opposite side of the bracelet (so when I make a row of backward knots, I make sure the string I'm switching to is on the Right side of the bracelet when I bring it under)

With this you can't really do the flat alpha technique from what I can tell, so as long as you don't try to tuck the string then you should be fine!

If you watch masha knots her video about the flat alpha technique she explains how to do it

It is just a regular Color switch but I found that a really helpful video for both techniques
