You could probably put in under a heavy book, like a dictionnary... that might help for a little while.

The only time I've ever had mine curl was when I experimented with single knots... I tried ironing them which seemed to work well.

this often happens to me also but ironing sound like a good thought JPIZZ.

Get a damp dishtowel, place it over the flat bracelet and go over it with an iron. Flip the bracelet, repeat, do this several times. My rag rugs always used to curl on themselves, now I always iron

ironing or heavy book will do, the bracelet i made my friend curled really bad, but he put it under a heavy text book and it was fine :D

If you do double knots (I don't know if you're already doing this), that helps prevent rolling.

i always make double knots and still curl. i was thinking about ironing it and putting that starch spray.

Whenever i do the smaller, thinner patterns i always double the strings. For example: if the patttern calls for 1 of blue, green, yellow and white... i do two of each. This makes the knots thicker and more sturdy. I try to do this with the smaller patterns that dont take that much string. If this helped at all..... you are welcome :)
