Clue 4: loving the pacing of the clues, and the pattern!

Just a tad behind schedule, clue 3 done!

Hello. This is the first time I did a neckband like this. When i put my sweater on, he doesn't 'lays' completely down. I like it when he does. I did everything like the instructions said. He isn't blocked yet. What do you all think. Will this become more flat? Can I fix this in any way to have it like I want? Used a needle 0,5 smaller then the one of my sweater. Some advice is much appreciated!

Colours are starting to come together nicely. Such fun. Thank you.
