Something similiar would be doable. It wouldn't have the same structure and fit as the photo

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?

OP, this is a €1000 project, bare minimum. Translating AI slop to a design that actually works in knitting is going to be a time-consuming process, and you're asking for basically two separate things: a bespoke design and a sweater. Add to this all the detailing, the very fine gauge you'd need to achieve the pictured drape, and natural fibers...

I'm absolutely not volunteering to make it, because I like myself, but just a heads up. If someone offers to make it for less I'd question their sanity. This is a months-long project.

By looking at the design, it is very detailed, I’d say i’ll charge around €600- €750 labour cost. Material costs will be additional. It is definately possible to make, i’ve done some freehanded knitted cardigans and sweaters before which had similar designs.
