sometimes my bracelets end up being wavy instead of straight. how do i make sure that they will be even?

use the straight edges technique. masha knots has a youtube tutorial and i think there’s a tutorial here on braceletbook

An even tension throughout the bracelet would also help to make them straighter. Also using the same thickness of strings will help too. 🙂

make sure to keep the knots consistent throughout the whole bracelet, not too loose and not to tight. your bracelets might be curving because you tie your knots too tight, i had that same problem when i started.

Some patterns will just naturally be wavy, like the candystripe or patterns that do forward only knots for a while and then suddenly switch to backward knots

I tie the bracelets really tight and I only use forward/forward-backward knots on the furthest knot to the right. On the furthest knot to the left, I only use backward/backward-forward knots. Both of those techniques work for me.
