ehhh theres many different possible reasons but i cant see nor inspect them so.. possible ones

1. string may be too loose or just not a string suitable for cuffs bc they get soft/loosen up over time

2 beads may be different sizes and that usually makes it look a tad off . not a rlly big deal

3 carousels usually look odd anyways lol esp if u use beads other than ponys 4 the bars

if you used string wrapped with thread, then usually it's softer and makes it loose its shape. for firmer stuff, i always use stretch magic or just normal plastic cord hopefully that helps! kao smileheart bounce

carasouel cuffs r wonky no matter what lol, esp the bars

i jus cut the ends off toothpicks n shove em in the beads, at least for carasouel cuffs n ladder stitches lol
