Knot tension is probably one the reasons that your knots are bumpy. I would suggest trying to figure out which knots you struggle with most/are different sizes than your other knots and making patterns that mostly use those knots. For example, if your fb/bf knots are uneven, try making a 1212 pattern like #33914 or #26326

I recommend to also not try to pull too much to either side while knotting. From personal experience I know that diamond shapes can get a little bumpy because you tend to pull the knots in a way that the bracelet gets wider and then thinner again.

In my experience, bracelets will be a lot less bumpy if you loosen your knotting tension

Yeah, you should really loosen up your knots so that your bracelet almost feels like a piece of cloth.Hope this advice helps you! Happy knotting! ❤️ |

I know everyone is saying to loosen your knots but I just made my knot tension super tight and that seemed to help. I didn't like being able to see light through my bracelets when I held them up, so I started knotting them as tight as I could and now none of my bracelets are wavy/bumpy. Maybe try both ways, make a little keychain with loose knots and then make one with really tight ones.
