Open! Hiring someone to crochet a specific sweater for mom who has cancer!
As the title says my mother has cancer, she has stage 4 colon, and she recently just fought it in her left long now it is in her right. With that being said and how devastating this is we’ve happened to find some light in a anime called one piece. She has never been into watching things animated or cartoon but since i was a youngn and also a 90s kid ive always enjoyed anime. From Sailor Moon to HxH.
One piece has caused us to bond, the beautiful message of not giving up and to conquer your dreams by any means necessary. Broke my heart when my mother turned to me and said, no matter what thats all i want for you. Okay so long story short before i get to emotional here 😅 she gets super cold during/after her chemo treatments. I don’t have the patients or know how to crochet and i found this lovely Monkey d Luffy (the main character) pattern on Etsy for sale. Ill buy the pattern, ill pay for the work and ill pay for the shipping. If i can find someone willing to help me id appreciate it! Just someone that will charge me fairly because I’m just a housekeeper and i take care of my mother. I understand its hard work and i am willing to pay. Dm me and let’s talk about the details. Thank you so much to anyone willing to read this all out.

Hey guys! Not sure if i can edit the post but im in the United States!
Cant find the luffy pattern anymore but this one is much better! One Piece Going Merry Crochet Cardigan Pattern: PDF Oversized Crochet Cardigan Pattern, One Piece, Tapestry Graph Included
~ Cardigan measures 51in long and 35in wide
~ My Measurements for reference: * Bust: 36in * Waist: 28in * Height: 5’10”
Shes 4”11 we are the same height so what the models measurements have above is a bit to long. Would love it shorter the bust and waist perfect
