Did you move the router all in the same direction for the part that you began to route?

If so, that was the problem. But maybe it's not what you did, I can't say.

I had the same problem when I routed some soft open grain walnut, but at the bottom end of the body where it's almost straight. But it was not as straight as I thought, and I ended up with the same result. For the second body with the same wood, I had to be VERY careful with the direction I was using the router.
