I see a lot of people complaining about their knots being too long in alphas, and I had this problem too and didn't know what to do. The regular answer is that it comes with practice, and it really does, but I think I found an actual way to practice exactly that. It took me like a year to figure out what to do but here's that:- stopped using the flat alpha technique. I have never done that before and started alphas straight into this technique, but after watching some videos (specifically "KNOTTING DANGEROUSLY || Ep. 1 - Flat Alpha vs. Regular" by @Margaron) I understood that the knots come out too long and thin, and it creates a warped picture. - practiced my knot-tension without the flat alpha until my bracelets had square knots (which is now possible, without the technique). - returned to the flat alpha technique, and for me at this point the knots were still coming up as squares, and the problem is solved! hopefully this will help someone somehow |
