Default Paint over knotty pine

Knots are bleeding through paint. Previous to painting I sanded, 2
coats of good shellac on the knots, primed the wood then 2 coats of
acrylic latex. Where did I go wrong? Is there a fix?

Thanks


In the UK we use 'Knotting primer' which seals the knots and stops the
resin coming out. Surely you can get something similar in the US.
