Hmmm.
I expect that I marked the yarn cards Heavyweight or Lightweight.
You should use the HW on sizes 2 and larger, LW on smaller; as HW makes too dense a Crest on the smaller sizes; and the Body Yarn is also HW, so makes a proportionate spacing with each wrap.
And tie in the 2 Skip-a-Wrap method (one Crest-anchoring wrap, two solo wraps, one Cre...) to keep the Crest sparse and not make each ply crowd the others- that'd start pushing the row out of alignment.
And trim the Crest after combing, not before.
(I don't see how one can go wrong if following the instructions.)
I think I need specs and pics to make a good diagnosis.
