But is it really worth it to do it yourself?

As someone who does solo fitting all the time, I say yes!

But the good news is, your helper doesnt have to know anything about sewing.

So grab your best friend, family member, husband or boyfriend and get to wrapping!

This essentially eliminates the anticipated weight fluctuations objection .

you might so easily repeat the process, if you think it necessary, later on.
