I normally use a piece of masking tape to keep the bracelet pinned down. If you take a piece and tape it just above where the rows end (like one row) it should help with that. Also, use the same tension when making knots and pull them all the way up so everything it snug. (Sorry if this isn't understandable. I have a hard time describing things.) Hope this helps! :)

@got_soulmates im having the same problem where i try to tighten the knots but i guess they like slip or something and wen i look at the bracelet the knots r like going in a diagonal row. i already tried tightening them and i try tightening them as far as i can, but they r still going in a diagonal row!

once you finish an alpha, if you haven' t noticed, you can move it slightly if it's crooked, but it doesn't necessariliy (bad spelling lol) work.. but tying them tight and with the same tension usually helps..

Masking tape or painter's tape definitely helps and it also helps if you try spreading them apart a bit.
