Tension troubles

Hi friends,
I recently started my first cross stitching project, a Christmas stocking for my son. All is going well but I do have one spot that is rippling due to inconsistent tension in the section. I read online that you can steam iron the piece between two cloths to help remove the rippling. When is the best time to do this, as soon as I notice it or when the project is fully finished? Any other advice is greatly appreciated, thank you!
