Lumpy soft top after first time putting it down— Is this normal?

[CT203]

One of the first nice days, I put the top down. When I put it back, the top was all bumpy and messed up looking. It obviously had some of the mechanical parts of the top pressing into it while down. Did I do something wrong? Is this normal? Will these stretch back out? Maybe it was only because it was the first time but I found the wrangler top and window removals to operate much more easily. The back window especially was a pain to get back on correctly. Add in a scratched roll bar - I was trying to be extra careful for that… and this distorted lumpy top, and I was pretty frustrated with it. Any words of wisdom are welcome.

Looks about normal. Some days it will look different based on temp and humidity.
