My favorite shoelace knot is berluti knot.

https://www.bestshoe99.in/how-to-tie-shoelaces/

It is symmetrical, it looks beautiful, it takes about as much time to tie and it has exactly zero chance of untying itself.

It has never failed me since I learned it.

The Berluti knot looks a lot like "Ian's secure knot" mentioned in other threads: https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/secureknot.htm

So having immediately tried this knot, I cannot get it to lay with the laces to the side like that. Mine turns vertical. My first assumption was that I was making a granny knot, but it doesn't matter which way around I knot the second knot.

Is this just a failing of this knot or am I doing something wrong?

You are making berluti version of granny knot or granny version of berluti knot (which may very well be the same thing but I just can't decide how to name this correctly).

Well yes, that much I figured, but that happens no matter which way around I tuck the loops. I'm looking more specifically for what to do differently to not end up with a granny variation.
