Help Did I do something wrong with my slipknot?

[RadioGaga]

I made a slipknot via some bedsheets but the problem is that if I put pressure on the loop a certain way(where the neck SHOULD go through), the loop loosens and could actually undo itself! . It is a slipknot so idk what I did wrong… :(.

Improvised equipment will work sometimes, not other times.
A sheet will be bulky once tied. It might not hold a complicated knot.
Have you tried just tying it really tight and using it that way?

I made another knot with another sheet but the harder I push downward with my hand(to simulate pressure with the neck) now the loop slides DOWNWARD so idk if that's a bad thing or not? Like it would tighten on my neck basically the harder I press downward… :(.

A bed sheet might not be the best choice.

There are people who have ctb with one though!

True.
It does not seem to be easy. Check on other items to use.

Ive seen a video of a guy that did it with similar fabric! It CAN work! :). I even have a picture of it! :).

Not doubting in CAN work.
Not everyone can make it work. Then a different item needs to be used.

Bedsheets are all that I got though!!!

Ok. You will need to try different ways to tie it.
A fixed loop tied tight around your neck should work. Just pull the knot to the back of your head to make sure pressure is applied to the sides and front.
