Lynnette,
Hello and welcome to the group! It is nice to meet you! If your ends are not coming out even, you may be skipping at the end of your rows. When I first started crocheting again, I was not crocheting into the end stitch and had to pull out yarn and redo so that my work was even. Hope this helps - let us know if you need more help!

Welcome Lynette! I sometimes place a safety pin in the first stitch of each row. That way, when you get to the end you will know which stich is the last one of the row! If you are working in double crochet, the ch 3 would uaually be the first stitch of the row and you would place the pin there! If you"e working in single crochet, the firstsc would be your Ist stitch! Hope that helps! There has also been a discussion on this on this site about this-you may want to look into it!
