Cable Gal

Vintage Velvet after 2 repeats.

Check out the bottom inch... no matter how many times I redid my own Vintage Velvet, the bottom looked like this too. It looks slightly off kilter. Like maybe the first cable pulled the sides in too far. I use my row counter, count all my stitches, etc... any suggestions? Did anybody run into this or am I just a screwy cabler?
