perfectly nor mal for second row, but keep that tension! as I go I usually hold the string tight with my left hand and string new beads with my right so it doesn't go slack. good luck happy

I agree with the other comments. For the first couple of rows, your cuff isn't going to stand up straight because it doesn't have enough support yet. As you continue to make the cuff, it will begin to take on it's own, natural shape. Just make sure you're not tying the string off too tight or too loose. happy

Also, that's normal for the second row- everything will, I guess, "fall into place" (or stand into place) as you work your way up. But keeping even tension throughout is also important

Are you pulling tight enough? You have to pull tight for the beads to stand up.
