Just some general tips:Use crotchet thread for your base strings (or any thread that’s thicker than your knotting thread) because it makes your bracelets sturdier Use the flat alpha and straight edges technique (here’s a flat alpha tutorial https://youtu.be/6FuoAPuwz4 and for straight edges, you basically just do a fb/bf knot on the last and first knot of every row) When you’re knotting, have something secure to hold your bracelet down. I prefer to use clipboards because they hold down my bracelets pretty well. The more loose your bracelet is while knotting, the more it will curve |
