    HI I was wondering if I should still increase the cross by 2 lbs when stringing 2 knot method ( eg for Black Knight rackets)

    Thanks

    i usually would increase it by 1. this would ensure that the strings do not shift too much.

    Depend on your machine. If you have 2 pt mounting machine, +2 lb (or 10%) for cross is better. If you have 6 pt mounting machine, I think +1 lb (or 5%) for corss is enough.
