i think how the cast-on looks is dependent on how you did your tension and stuff. but my first few rows of garter stitch are always tighter and weirder than the rest of the item...
ooh, if you've been using like Red Heart yarn or something like that, try Lion Brand Homespun... it's still pretty cheap, still acrylic, but it has a neat boucl? texture and the variegated kinds come out really pretty. I'm using the color "nouveau" and it's so nice that I want to make a little sweater out of it soon.
