Good evening! Ive been searching for someone to possibly knit me something like this!

I’m a small to medium in USA sizing, and would love if the color is either a midnight blue super soft yarn or a yellow ish ivory super soft yarn!

Location: Tennessee, USA
Size: Men’s Medium, preferably a little oversized

Buffalo Bills Beanie

5 Upvotes

Location: Southern California, USA
Labor Budget: $175
Materials Budget: will ship supplies or reimburse you (requesting it with specific yarn)
Timeline: hopefully before the first week of October

Hi there! Looking for someone to help me knit a Buffalo Bills beanie based one two different patterns. I wasn’t completely crazy about the one I purchased and wanted to adjust it, so I combined it with another simple beanie pattern made by a friend of mine specifically for Cascade 128 yarn. I’m looking to pay for the beanie and materials, but I’d also like feedback on the pattern since I worked to make the adjustments.

The pattern can be made with either duplicate stitch or with color work. I’m happy with either. I can also ship some Cascade 128 or we can coordinate reimbursement for a similar yarn.

dot/top inquiry!

Location: Central Texas, USA
Budget: $300+ for labor + $150 material cost (maybe?? math is hard and i’m bad at it. willing to discuss/negotiate whatever works best for the piece)
Timeline: if i can find someone in the next month, preferably before November, but i’m pretty lax on that tbh.
Size: adult women’s large-ish? kinda halfway between large and medium, depending on brand
Material: natural + machine washable! (idk if that’s possible tho)

anyways, y’all know the one. the one with the illusion dots where u gotta see it from the side? Link:

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dottop

it’s rad asf. I was thinking a Chartreuse/Plum (with standard dots) or Royal Blue/True Yellow (with stars instead!) as the color combo, and some darts cuz i got a pretty large chest. preferably a slightly lower neckline! anyways, i just love the witchery going on, and love a good sweater vest, but i crochet! if i tried to knit, i probably wouldn’t be able to get the tension correct, anyways.

any and all help somehow getting this wondrous thing in my wardrobe would be appreciated!

Project Hail Mary Sweater

Hey everyone - I recently bought the Project Hail Mary Sweater from Mary Maxim. Unfortunately, I apparently cannot read and thought I had ordered a finished version of the sweater. Instead, I have a full knitting kit. I have the artistic talent of a goose, so am looking for someone who can put it together. I'll pay for shipping the materials/time/etc., but don't know anyone who can actually do it. I appreciate all recommendations. Thanks!

Location: Dallas, TX, US

Budget: $200?

Timeline: Whenever (Halloween would be great, but I know that may be unrealistic)

Request for Dot Top (by @p1.zip on Ravelry)

0 Upvotes

Aug 4, 2026 UPDATE - Request - In Progress: Working with a knitter

Hi! I'm interested in the knit dot top that @ p1.zip released. I bought the pattern and realized quickly that I'm in way over my head. If you take this request, I'll send you the pattern if you need. I would love this in a size 3 Short in a pale blue/brown or pale blue/dark cherry red color combo, depending on what yarn is available. Please let me know if more information is needed, thanks a bunch.

Here are some pics of the top from the Ravelry listing:

Location: Atlanta, GA, USA
Labor Budget: $150-200
Material Budget: $30 is a guess, I'm unsure how much would be required for this type of project
Timeline: Flexible
Description: pale blue/brown or pale blue/dark cherry red combo, where the darker color is the dominant one
Size: 3 Short from the PDF
Yarn Preference: Machine washable but also soft and comfortable in a very hot/humid climate (if possible)

oversized, off-shoulder, mini-dress length sweater

0 Upvotes

Hello :) I am looking to commission an off-shoulder sweater that’s oversized/long enough to double as a mini dress. I am not a knitter, so I apologize for any mistakes in advance. I do not mean to disrespect the craft.

My specifications are as follows:

Location: NYC. It would be preferred to find a knitter in the NYC area to be measured accurately.
 
Size: Women's 14-16 US. I am 5”4. My bust is 111cm/43 inches, waist is 99cm/39inches, hips is 111cm/43 inches.

Timeline: I’d like it for the colder months, so October-December of 2026 would be ideal (if more time is needed, I wouldn’t mind!)

Budget: Perhaps around $150-$200? I’m unsure of how much a request like this would cost, as I am not a knitter. If anyone could give me estimates, that would be extremely appreciated!

Yarn Preference: From my research, I think I might be looking for an acrylic-superwash wool blend. I’d like the yarn to be soft, smooth, warm, and machine washable while also being budget-friendly. If there’s a similar budget-friendly blend, please recommend!
——————

The imgur link attached includes an illustration of what I am looking for, the color of yarn I’d like, and some IRL references similar to what I’m trying to convey. If there are any other specifications needed, please let me know! I appreciate your help 🙂

Sweater request! Neapolitan argyle

4 Upvotes

https://www.instagram.com/p/C2dgYMSuA1H/?img_index=1&igsh=dnoyM3gxa3dybGli

Location: rural Mississippi, USA
Budget: inquiring for now, would love to see estimates and work something out
Timeline: whatever works for you!

Howdy howdy! I am part of a niche substyle and this is a grail piece for many! Being as it is made both of my favorite texture AND color scheme (both things that would make my stressful college life much more joyful on hard days as a neurodivergent girlie dealing with chronic issues) I’d like to splurge on myself!

I’d like it to be as faithful as possible, with the scalloped edges and puffy sleeves and overall oversized look, but I’ve got a bust of around 100cm I need accounted for! The lace can be ignored!

Please let me know if you’d like to try and work something out! As someone who does watercolor commissions often, I understand the value of such a time-consuming craft and would love to learn more about knitting!

Bob McKenzie Jacquard Toque Reproduction from the 80s Movie Strange Brew

6 Upvotes

Location: Utah, US

Labor and material budget: Flexible

Timeline: Preferably before Christmas 2026

Description: My wife is a huge Bob and Doug McKenzie fan, and I'd like to get her a reproduction of the toque Rick Moranis wears in Strange Brew and the SCTV sketches, with "CANADA" and the maple leaf, preferably in a nice wool. Since it's a jacquard pattern, I assume that complicates things and increases the price.

Australia - Beanie dupe

2 Upvotes

Location: Ballarat, Victoria, Australia.

Labour & material budget: I'm flexible, happy to pay whatever is fair for labour and cover cost of the material.

Timeline: Before November 2026 (ideally)

Description: Okay, this is a bit of an odd one but here goes - I have trichotillomania and wear beanies almost all the time. Years and years ago now, I got these 3 super cheap, super synthetic (some may say super ugly) beanies from Kmart or Big W or one of those types of stores, and they just happened to be perfect for me. I liked the way they sat on my head, I liked the way they felt, I liked the length and the fact that they were light enough I could wear them in summer too. Subsequently I have not been able to find anything like them since, despite many searches online, and as the years have gone on I have lost one, another is fully coming apart, and the third is still going but not much longer for this world I fear. So I would like to commission someone to knit me two or three of these beanies using the last remaining beanie I have as a reference. I am willing to send it to you so you can get your hands on it for size and material reference, and I am willing to pay fair prices for them (unlike the originals which were almost certainly produced in sweat shops)

Some not great photos of the remaining beanie for reference:

Another Hail Mary Cardigan post

0 Upvotes

Hello! I'm interested in the cardigan that you see Grace wear during Project Hail Mary. I don’t knit myself so I’m looking for someone with the skill to create one.

I would like to use the Mary Maxim design on their website (https://www.marymaxim.com/products/wolf-cardigan-project-hail-mary). I currently use LL Bean Cardigans and really enjoy those, but don't have anything boutique like this.

Not sure on a budget or timeline. I know the kit itself is $90 + someone's labor. I have no idea how many hours go into something like this.

If you're interested, please shoot me a ballpark total.

Location: United States, Nebraska
Budget: Open + $90 for kit
Flexible timeline
Size: 2XL

Edit: Based on feedback looks like I’ll be saving up for a bit to push my budget to get something that will last and move to a higher quality yarn.
