I would be hard pressed to buy a $200 sweater but if I spend $250 on yarn and have to knit it myself it’s actually basically free

No no no. That's when you buy $300 worth of roving and spin your own yarn to knit it. Then it's extra free!
Let's not go down the rabbit hole of getting a fleece and carding it into roving to spin to knit. At that point you may as well just get a sheep or llama and never do anything else ever.
You shall be buried in fiber!!
