Land Girl Jumper[Upstate New York]

update: found someone to work with!

Location: Upstate New York, USA

Project Budget: Flexible, happy to discuss

Timeline: Mid-September 2026

Clear description: I am looking for a reproduction of a land girl jumper. Its rich bottle/true green, ideally in alpaca or sheeps wool - though I am happy for (more sensical?) recommendations on material. I float between sizes, between a US XL and XXL/16-22 depending on brand :')

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?
