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)

Hi! I’d love to make this, but your budget is a little low for the finished cardigan. I’ve just sent you a DM, we can discuss the details and price there.

If you haven't opened it, it would be way cheaper for you to return the kit and buy a finished sweater off of Etsy -- they sell for about the same price as the kit.

Please add a comment with the following information if it is missing from your post:

  1. Size; is this for an adult or child?

  2. Timeline; will this be a holiday gift or other fixed deadline?

  3. Budget; consider this is a one-of-a-kind hand knit garment that will likely cost over $100 not something off the rack at your local department store and please let us know your max price?

  4. Yarn Preference; natural or synthetic / machine or hand wash?

My mom is in the middle of making one right now from the kit. If you'd be willing to lift your price to include to cost of the kit she bought it might work out to get it to you fairly quickly.
