I need people to help me find any mistakes in the pattern and please be able to provide at least 1-2 clear photos of your finished plushie that I can use in my posts (crediting you of course) when I will release the pattern!

The testing deadline is July 18th!

Tester appreciation and pattern release!

Tester appreciation and pattern release for the Tutti Frutti wrap top!! 💞💞

Testers needed for a variety of crafts

I'm looking for testers across a variety of crafts that can be done from a grid chart. Cross stitch, fuse beads, diamond painting, needlepoint, knit, crochet, and anything else I've missed.

I produce a unique sort of cross stitch, etc patterns aimed at crafters who want more ways to customise a complex design. Hand-drawn colouring book patterns give crafters designs they can craft and colour however they like. I have a small collection of charts to pick from, beyond those shown here. Testers can pick the one they'd like to do. I am currently not limiting the number of people who can select the same pattern, as I would prefer to have a variety of crafts and style to showcase. There are also full-colour charts available for people who would prefer those.

The line work in the patterns was drawn using a hard pixel brush, which makes it easier to change colours, and eliminates the typical confetti usually found in these areas on art-based patterns.

If you have any questions, I am here to answer them!

View everything here: https://crossstitchcolouringbooks.com/pattern-testers/

Level of skill required: Any. If you can complete a project, you're able to participate

Written, charted or abbreviated pattern: Grid charts

Tester requirements: Bluesky account, photos of finished projects, regular updates, ability to give actionable feedback on the process and patterns.

Testing deadline: Some of these are huge, so dates will be determined individually

Number of testers needed: 15

Tsarina's Garden Hip Scarf

I need three pattern testers for my newest pattern which is a hip scarf. I need intermediate crocheters who know their way around patterns. This is NOT for someone that isn't sure how to read a pattern or doesn't read carefully. It's text-heavy and you'll need to be on your A game for this one but it's a beauty when done! Looks great over a swimsuit.

Please only apply if you're serious about finishing this garment. I need feedback on fit and ease of crochet.

This is made with a 6mm hook and you can use yarns like Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton, Paintbox Cotton DK, Premier Cotton Fair, YarnArt Jeans, or Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/8.

Testing window will be to the end of the month. I require a finished photo--can be a flat lay--and I need that photo to be listed in Ravelry as a project AFTER the pattern goes live.

email: hodgepodgecrochet@gmail.com

Size Finished Width
S/M 38" (96.5 cm)
L/XL 44" (112 cm)
2X/3X 50" (127 cm)

Just finished my second crochet pattern and I’m now looking for testers! Unfortunately I don’t have that many followers so I thought I’d reach a bigger audience here. Apply through my instagram post: @minas_virkningar🫶🩷

And yes unfortunately I can only accept people with an Instagram! That’s because I’ll have a group chat for the testers as I find that it works best🩷🎀
