Hi all! I have this dress that's made of a thick but finely knitted fabric. I would like the hem shortened by 2 in. Is there anyone here that could unpick the hem and refinish it? I'm afraid if I just sew up the hem, it'll become too bulky and won't sit right.

Hello! I am interested in commissioning a forever sweater that won't be too itchy. The below images are of a chiquita banana sweater and the Bad Bananas military unit logo. I would like to have the pattern for the sweater created, but use the Bad Bananas logo instead of the chiquita sticker. With the additional details, I imagine the sticker would need to be enlarged; if it is too fine of details, some of them could also be dropped from the sticker. I'm looking for a balance of detail and vibe (similar to how the chiquita sticker isn't as detailed as it could be).

-I am a 74 inch tall adult American male (40" chest by 28" top of shoulder to hem).

-I'm looking for this to be loose fitting as well.

-No deadline on this, preferably first half of 2025.

-Budget is flexible

-I don't know anything about sweater fabrics. I don't want it to be itchy. I want something that will look good forever, and understand that changes the price point.

-Im located in Texas, US.

I don't know anything about sweaters, so please prod be in the right direction.

Didn’t want to thread high jack the other request. Got three links I was wondering if I bought the full clan sweater and the pattern for it. Could the pouch pocket and hood be made separately with the pattern and attached to the full sweater? Could the original collar be redone to be to be like the v shape of the hooded one in the third link? Price of the hood and pocket with and without collar alterations? How much would they be if I didn’t have the pattern and you’d have to knit a copy of them (there are a few premade quarter zips I really like but they don’t have a pattern for.

They sell the yarn so I’d probably buy from them to make sure the colors match. How many hanks(?) Would you need for a job like this?

Let me know any questions.

Thanks!

Looking for something... Incredibly complicated 😅 A few examples along the lines of what I'm after:

https://imgur.com/a/qnv86CS

How much could I expect to pay for something along these lines? What about with detail around the cuff?

Would it reduce the price significantly to get a sweater vest instead?

What about double knitting on a pre-existing sweater that I already own and love?

Thanks so much for any advice!!

Hello! I'm in need of a replica of Boq's sweatervest from the new Wicked movie. I typically wear a size S. For those unfamiliar, it looks like this: https://images.app.goo.gl/yvVr1TMkmzuTKeiB6

I'd love to get an estimated cost. I live in CA for shipping purposes. Thanks!

Hi everyone! I’m looking for somebody to knit me a “hoodie jumper” and would love to talk details ❤️ unfortunately I can’t post any pictures on the community but I’m glad to explain more :)

Hello! I have been wanting this blanket since I first saw it years ago - looking for quotes.

Looking for a knitted sweater hoodie like this one.

Doesn't have to be exact pattern but a similar style would be nice. Would like it in colors as close gold or green in the image with the three buttons. I am 6'5" and quite skinny (185lbs) with long arms so can never get something like this from the store. Budget is flexible but, thinking around $500 for something would be ideal, durable, warm with a good fit. Let me know about options and if you have any similar examples of prior work.

These are my Long Sleeve Shirt Dimensions
Collar Around: 16.00
Sleeve Length: 39.70
Yoke Width: 19.00
Chest Width: 21.00
Midsection Width: 16.00
Back Length: 33.50
Sleeve Width: 9.00
Cuff Around: 9.30
Bottom Width: 17.30

I'd imagine you would want to go wider around the collar and the rest as well to allow for shrinkage. Not really sure my first knit request.

I made a color edit on a reference photo.

https://ibb.co/tP41Y7g

Material - fuzzy

Length - above elbow

Colors - pink, blue, yellow (Vibrant hue not pastel)

Modifications - fingerless gloves

Budget - $150(will pay more if this is too low)

Willing to provide measurements and pay for shipping. Thank you!

My grandma made everyone in my family a Christmas stocking when they were born or married in. She died unexpectedly before my second son was born, so he never got one. Would anyone know of someone who could recreate something? I definitely don't expect it to be done by Christmas, I just was pulling out the others and thought of it now. I am willing to pay well because this is a really special request for me. It's close to my heart. I would appreciate any assistance! Thanks!

Hi all, I am from Copenhagen and I need help knitting 2 items.

The first item is a Latvian mitten. I have all the equipment (from yarn cakes to the needle and pattern), therefore it will be great if you are also in Copenhagen so I can pass them to you. This is a physical printed pattern (yarn kit) I bought from Latvia so it is not digital.

The second item is a Boucle hat from Le Pull. I haven't got the yarn for this but if need, I can buy and pass it to you as well. This is a crochet pattern. https://lepullstudio.com/product/boucle-hat/

I am a knitter myself but I am not familiar with crocheting and DPNS with 1.5mm needles, I also have too many other things to knit and only 1 pair of hands so if anyone is interested to help, please message me and we can discuss rates :) Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone! I'm a crocheter and came across this knitted beanie while browsing Etsy for crochet patterns, and I instantly knew I had to find someone to help make it a reality for me: This is the beanie I am interested in!

An estimate would be appreciated so I can start figuring out putting money aside for it. I would likely want to hire you in the new year, so I'm mostly wanting to figure out what the cost would be and if anyone would be interested!

I don't have a deadline as this would just be a random gift for my older teen and, as I mentioned above, it wouldn't be something I'd want to start until the new year... Which also just makes sense as I'm sure many of y'all are knee-deep in Christmas knitting like I am with crocheting!

I have no preference of yarn type, I'd ideally just like it to be as close to the colors in the images as possible. It doesn't have to be super fancy high-end yarn, so if there's a cozy acrylic you'd recommend, let's go for that!

I'm based in the U.S. so ideally would also like someone Stateside if only because of shipping costs.

If I need to purchase the pattern first before I can be given a more accurate estimate, please do let me know and I'll do that.

Thanks all and have a lovely weekend!

Seeking a knitted or crochet sweater with a boat(s) on it.

Could be colorful like for red the holidays.

Or neutral / nautical with cream / navy.

The idea would be to wear with boots and leggings. I have pics of anyone wants to get a better idea to quote.

Thank you!

Need help with this collared green and white knitted sweater, any help would be appreciated, an estimate on the cost, and overall time frame to make, https://www.ebay.com/itm/335441879279 (link to sweater)

Measurements are:20.5 inches underarm to underarm25 inches top to bottom

Hello - I am looking to commission someone for a sewn quilt. Here is the link to the finished product: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/476222152/yellow-rose-applique-antique-quilt?show_sold_out_detail=1&ref=nla_listing_details.

Size: 84x100"

I can provide the pattern / kit and instructions.

I don't have a specific timeline. In terms of budget, I don't have a specific number in mind and would be curious what a commission like this would come to. I am based in Canada (Calgary, Alberta) and am willing to pay for international shipping.

Thank you in advance!

Hello! Does anyone have experience knitting in this particular scallop pattern? https://www.moderndailyknitting.com/community/knit-detective-the-eddie-redmayne-sweater/ I would be looking to request a men’s large cardigan in this pattern, and can provide more examples of the finished cardigan. Let me know :)

Hi! I found a knit pattern for my favorite video game character. It would be a sweater for an adult (plus size). I would happily pay for the pattern. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1527667710/kazoo-sweater-crochet-pattern-kaedehara

What would a solid estimate be?

My name is Svetlana. I am engaged in knitting to order. Here is the link to my shop.https://knitgeometricstyle.etsy.com I work only with natural, high-quality yarn. I have machine knitting. I will be happy to cooperate.

Hi! I've been eyeing this sweater that's sold out legitimately everywhere, so I am looking to see if it would be possible for someone to knit it for me. I don't have a pattern but I'm assuming its a standard ribbed design? https://imgur.com/a/JC9VqXs

The size would be an M/L male, made with merino wool yarn as that is what the original sweater is made of. Timeframe is flexible, while I do hope to get it before the weather starts to warm up (by Jan/Feb next year I guess?), but later is totally fine. As for budget, I'll be able to pay $250 but please let me know if that's reasonable for a sweater like this- I haven't commissioned someone before, and I'm definitely willing to discuss prices. As for location, I'm based in the US.

Thanks!

Hi! I found this sweater on Etsy that I’d like, and I’ll link the pattern here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/746696568/knitting-pattern-my-fallsweater?ref=share_v4_lx I’ll of course purchase the pattern for whomever is willing to do this for me.

I believe I’m a size M/L on their chart.

I wouldn’t mind having it early next year while it’s still cool enough to wear sweaters, but I’m not dead set on it before next fall. I would definitely want to have the sweater in hand by fall 2025.

My budget is pretty open ended. I’ve never ordered a custom garment before, so I’m not sure how much exactly I should expect to spend. I’m also aware that this pattern calls for alpaca, which is liable to be pricey. I thought $400 at the very lower end, but I’m prepared to spend more than that upon discussion.

Requester ended up wanting this blue sweater with the checker square rather than the Harry styles style jw cardigan. I also added the custom embroidered label, which certainly isn’t my specialty but they ended up happy with the final piece! They wanted a black stripe that started from the bottom black rib and continued to the sleeve cuffs. A bit of extra work, but I managed to figure it out!

See photos of it here on my ig:

I don’t post here much, i mostly leave comments, hopefully this link works!

Hi! I saw these on Pinterest (https://pin.it/2ijzXb79q) and haven't been able to stop thinking about them for weeks. I wish I knew how to knit myself, but don't really have time to pick up a new hobby right now. I think I might die without them. I'm from the US, but would be willing to pay international shipping if necessary. Please help :)!

Hello,

I am looking to see if someone could recreate this custom marius sweater that I have seen on tv: https://i.imgur.com/SzgcUIT.png + https://i.imgur.com/kI2bf6m.png

I am in the US but am willing to pay international shipping if needed. Let me know if additional information is needed! Thank you!

Looking for socks for Christmas

No one in my family Knows how to knit. My grandparents who do are all on the other side of the globe.

I’m looking for a pair of 100% merino wool thigh highs (all black) or some blend of mostly merino wool for a tall person. She’s 180cm and can’t find thigh highs anyway that doesn’t go basically just to her knees. Where can I go to find a person to do this? I’m in Toronto Canada.

Something like this. I’m not sure of cost, budget is around 100USD

Edit: I found someone, thank you!!

Hi All,
I posted here yesterday about recreating a jumper for my wife, I tried to post an update on the original but for some reason, it was removed.
I want to find someone to recreate a jumper for my wife, it is a 90s Tammy girl navy blue long-sleeved top with soft crochet rainbow arms and a cat/flower/rainbow pattern.

I have a link to the images on my Google Drive https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/18I5CycluJGbTncDHi5roO23XMsYCRjxQ?usp=drive_link

Could anyone recreate something similar to this? it would need to be in a UK-sizes 22

Thanks in advance

Do you charge your client at the beginning or only after the project has been made? If it's only after the project is made, is it reasonable to ask for a deposit to cover the cost of materials at the beginning?

Hello,

I hope you are all well.

I have recently purchased a knitting pattern, but though I sew I do not knit very well, and so am looking to commission some one to knit it for me in a deep forest green colour. I am based in the UK, but am happy to pay for international shipping. As I believe there is some complexity to the design, please give me a quote not including shipping - I want to make certain that I am paying you a fair price. Thank you!

Here is the design that I purchased: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1490281791/knitting-pattern-for-fairy-tale-sweater?ref=user_profile

Hello all! I recently fell victim to one of Tiktok's shop ads for an oversized striped sweater that I just instantly fell in love with. I buy it, it arrives, and it is the worst, most awful, most scratchiest material I think I've ever had the ill fortune of putting on my body.

Thing is, I love the pattern and colors but the texture is so bad I'm still itchy 5 minutes after taking it off.

I ain't well versed in knitting or sweaters or nothing, but it's a simple enough design I think. Not so sure what kind of estimate this would warrant...150-300 seems like a maybe reasonable budget.

Any advice is appreciated, and any questions I will answer. Thank ya'll :-D

Here is the sweater: https://imgur.com/a/NlxcKK1

After posting information editing...

• This sweater will be for an adult (me) I am willing to send measurements of the sweater (or just the actual sweater itself if that's easier.)

• I don't have a deadline but like...preferably within the next 3-6 months at the latest?

• Budget around 150-300 USD.

• I do not have a preference for natural vs synthetic material type, whatever is soft, inoffensive on skin, and easy to maintain (machine-washable) Would like a medium amount of weight, not too thin not too thick...if that's a thing

Hello, talented needle crafters! I'm interested in commissioning this beautiful stained glass vest! https://wipinsanity.blogspot.com/p/pattern-tracery-vest.html

I would prefer it in greens/blues rather than the purple/pinks. I would also like natural fiber yarn. I understand that this will be pricey, and am willing to compensate you adequately. Many thanks for your consideration!

Edit: I have found someone to knit this for me. 🥰 Thank you all for your kindness and interest

hello!

i saw this sweater on pinterest (https://pin.it/3tyjJHhBb) and absolutely fell in love with it. i was wondering if it would be possible for me to commission someone to make this for me!

info: i’m from california, USA size: petite adult (possibly a regular adult’s size small for this). timeline: i would like to receive this by the beginning of january budget: 300 USD (but i’m willing to look at my options!) yarn preference: i’m not too educated about yarn unfortunately but hopefully something that isn’t too expensive but good for sensitive skin :) i’m definitely open to doing some research as well

please let me know if you have any questions or insight! TIA
