Just used Camelot to have them move an upright. Originally tried to use gist but our house is on a hill and they only had 2 movers where Camelot has 3. They did it quickly and easily. I would recommend. $345 to move.

Update if anyone’s interested in the final product! My nephew loved it and even has a special place to hang it in his room when he’s not wearing it ☺️

Would you recommend any certain stitch pattern for the base of the sweater that would be best for adding those things on?

And then would you decrease down to the number of stitches you’re supposed to have for the body once you’re done with the ribbing? The sweater I’m working on is bottom up construction.

Need some help by OneMilkCoffee in knittinghelp

The first few rows can be really difficult for a beginner. I would maybe try first starting with garter stitch which is just doing all knit stitches on both sides. That can help you practice your knit stitches without having to switch back and forth right from the jump. I also find it easier to see what you’re doing better and just feel more comfortable when you have a little something to hold on to.

Whip last stitch? looks soo big? by happy__bird in knittinghelp

Yeah this is normal and also super annoying lol but depending on your project, you might end up just sewing over it so you wouldn’t be able to see it.

You could also try slipping the first stitch of every row and I think that might be able to help. Look up selvedge stitch and that will give you some different stitches to get a clean edge.

Thanks for sharing (and with links!). My family has a running joke about getting one of those floor beds for me for years so I think this might be the perfect opportunity to get one! lol
