Perhaps you aren't allowing enough weft to prevent draw-in. If your weaving is becoming more narrow, the selvedge threads have to stretch further and also start rubbing in the reed. Lay your weft in at a larger angle or bubble it in the center, close the shed before you beat. Using a temple might help too.
