Knot tension is very likely a culprit, so try to knot a little more loosely. I also find that most bracelets will soften if you get them wet and then lay them out to dry.

knot tension for sure, looser will be softer. also throwing them through the wash with fabric softener! i wouldn't put them in the dryer tho

I used to tie my knots so tightly and my knots would come out skinny and slanted and I HATED IT IT WAS SOOOO ANNOYING. so yeah knot tension is important. tie looser then push ur knots into a straight line with a ruler or smth. also, what really helped for me is starting with small alphas like 10-15 base strings then work ur way up to wall hangings and stuff. also, alphas used to seem really intimidating to me, so what I just do is do as many rows as I can, then take a break and come back to it once im ready to start again. hope this helps! ❤️
