Would using strings of different thickness affect my bracelet ? Will it make it wonky or bumpy ?

If you want to double up on the thinner string, you can make it a similar thickness to the thicker one (ex: instead of 1 strand of blue use 2 strands but knot as if there is only 1 strand)

string thickness doesn’t matter too much with normals (within a reasonable margin, you shouldn’t use super thick crochet yarn and thin embroidery floss together obviously) but it matters a lot for alpha bracelets since they go in exact rows

Normal bracelets only matter if the bracelet is something like a candy stripe where you use one type of thread for a while, then the other for a large period of time. This would make the edges wavy, but to avoid this you could try using the straight-edges technique. On the other hand, alpha patterns must have the same thickness of all threads - MashaKnots has videos on alphas that explain why. Overall, the best bet to be safe is to use the same thickness and you'll get the cleanest looking results! Hope this helps 🙂

It is okay on normal pattern since you use all of them but it might be a little wonky on alphas. I would just try avoiding it.Hope this helps! 😛 😄 |
