@xojenz are you doing forward-backward knots and the reverse on the edge knots on your alphas? This is what MashaKnots recommends for straight edges. 😊

Make sure you make the knots at the edge as tight as the other knots. You can make a knot tighter by making sure to pull the first half of the knot tight before you do the second half. Fb and bf knots have the tendency of being a bit wonky. Make sure to hold the base string tight while knotting on it.

Are you using the flat alpha color switching technique on the edge? If so that is why the other leading string would stick out the edge. Instead of doing flat alpha color switches on the edges, just do a normal color switch.
