it might have to do with how yo start your bracelet, or that when you start it then you make your knots tighter.

It might also be a practice thing. While knotting a bracelet you get more practiced and your knotting becomes tighter. If you practice more in general your knotting will become more consistent in general.

I recommend to always start a bracelet with a shaped start like a triangle start. This way you have something to build up on and don't need to worry about disturbing the structure if you pull too tight.

This happens to me too. When i start I am trying to figure out the pattern and how it is supposed to look. As I continue to do it, I get more confident and the bracelet starts to be a lot tighter. Just be confident in your ability to do the pattern as you go through. You should be fine.

it really just depends on your tension that you have to keep it the same. Thats probably why its looser and then tighter. You can make like chevrons as practice or try to segment knot differently to see if it changes the way you knot consistently

Your anchor point could also affect this. Use tape or a clipboard so you can keep the same distance between the anchor and where you are knotting.
