When the current ways fail, return to the old ways.
Knitting a jumper requires time, patience, and a modicum of skill but nothing outside the ability of a determined beginner. It can be done while watching TV!
You can also make it 100% wool instead of acrylic or polyester, which most clothes are made from now-a-days. Therefore being warmer, longer lasting, slightly water resistant, more sustainable, and considerably more environmentally friendly when it inevitably meets its demise many years from now.
$34.80 would go a long way in covering the cost of the wool, potentially even all of it depending on the type chosen and your location.
Next thing you know you’ll be surrounded by your own-made blankets and scarves wondering why you ever put up with the plastic crap we’re sold in shops. And the warmest you’ve ever been!
You must have skills to knit a sweater while watching tv. I can’t even do a plain, no pattern, knit stitch only scarf without staring at it. I can listen to podcasts or something, just no looking away.

Watching is a strong word to be fair haha
Zoning in and out
I wish that I could make stuff, but you see how my right hand is curling a bit in the picture despite me trying to keep it straight?
Sadly, two strokes have done a number in my motor skills. My cane is resting just out of frame and I’m precariously balanced in that shot.
I didn’t see your picture before commenting. I’m sorry to hear that. I like your drip though, very avante garde!
