What's the difference??

ETA: I have been advised that it's probably my 'tightness'... i'm doing it too loose. And also, I think this may be in the wrong room. SORRY!

I'm revisiting viking knit.
The neater one on the left is from when I started.
The longer sloppier one on the right was this weekend.
Both are single stitches.... done on one of those viking knit tools, so the same amount of loops. I THOUGHT I was doing them the same way, but obviously I am not....but I don't remember.

What's the difference?? Anyone know? It's driving me nuts.

Ok I am not an expert by any means but it looks like you pulled your loops tighter on the left one.

I've only done it a few times but my first thought was a different number of 'spines' or columns. The long strands are the lengths between the loops so your loops were further apart thus my thought of less spines or maybe larger mandrel. make sense?
