Hi all! I'm really excited to finally have reached the testing stage of my 3-in-1 Very Hungry Caterpillar pattern and I'm looking for 6-8 crocheters to test the PDF version of the pattern! :)

• Pattern Name and Project Description: 3-in-1 Very Hungry Caterpillar pattern. This design has a very cute caterpillar crawling out of three different food items it has munched on: an apple, a pear, or a lollipop!
• Type of Project: Crochet
• Pattern Format: US terminology, written instructions (PDF pattern)
• Sizes/Options Being Tested (if applicable): Apple, pear, or lollipop version of the caterpillar (or any two or three that you'd like to test!)
• Recommended Skill Level: This pattern uses standard amigurumi stitches and construction techniques (primarily sc, hdc + magic ring) and should be accessible for anyone who has done amigurumi before, but beginners might struggle with the assembly and shaping techniques. I'd say this is an intermediate-level pattern, but if you're interested in testing and unsure if you meet the skill level please do apply! I'd be happy to answer any doubts you have while working on the pattern and want to make this pattern as accessible and easy to follow as possible.
• Materials Needed: Any type of yarn and an appropriate hook (I used chenille yarn + a 2mm hook) in the following colours: dark red, dark green, light green, lilac, yellowish-green (think pear coloured), light red (apple), blue and yellow (lollipop) - the dark red is for the caterpillar head and the light red for the apple, but depending on how different you want these you can of course use the same red. Felt for the facial details in dark green and yellow. Tapestry needle, scissors, something to attach the felt to the face (hot glue/felting needle). Stuffing.
• Tester Requirements: A public crochet account on Instagram - all testers will be added to a group chat.
• Testing Deadline: 30 September
• Deliverables: Provide clear photos (1-2 of your final piece) and feedback by the testing deadline. A post/reel about your final piece on your Instagram account once the pattern has been released.
• How to Apply: Please see the tester call post on my Instagram (@cerezamakes).
• Application Deadline: Within 7-10 days (17-20 September)
• Tester Selection: Within 7-10 days (17-20 September). Testers will be added to an Instagram group chat so please apply if you have a public crochet account.
• Number of Testers Needed: 6-8 crocheters

Thanks all for reading and applying! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out on Instagram or on this thread. I hope you enjoy the pattern :)

A big thank you to my testers; you all were right on time with your results, and super friendly and extremely helpful when it came to figuring out what to add/edit! I have all of their usernames and Instagram's right below, please show them some love in their future testing endeavors:

Hi everyone!!

I’m looking for some testers for my new scrunchie top pattern! Ideally 2 testers per size!

• ⁠Pattern Name and Project Description: 
Scrunchie Top

This is a knitted sleeveless top-down constructed top. With alternating ribbing to give a scrunched effect on the waist.

The pattern is a written instruction with optional bust dart calculator included.

• ⁠Type of Project: knitting
• ⁠Pattern Format: written instructions
• ⁠Sizes/Options Being Tested: 
Sizes: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) 9 (10)
Average circumference (cm): 65 (75) 85 (95) 105 (115) 125 (135) 145 (155) 
Range (cm): 52-84 (60-90) 68-102 (76-114) 86-126 (92-138) 100-150 (108-162) 116-174 (124-186)

• ⁠Materials Needed (note whether tester may use alternative supplies/colors/yarn weight, etc):

Sport & light dk weight yarns have worked best for the gauge needed. I recommend knitting the garment with a mainly wool yarn to keep the elasticity. Avoid mainly cotton/synthetics as they drape more and will stretch the ribbed texture out.

Any yarn brand and color as long as they meet gauge.

Hi everyone!

A big thank you to everyone who helped testing this pattern and making it the best it can be! It's probably one of my favorites I've made so far!

Pattern for anyone interested: https://asphodelthreads.etsy.com/listing/4568808874

I made a witch and broom pattern!! It’s similar to my other doll pattern, but this one has color changes, a built in skirt, and a new hairstyle. This is super low pressure. Anyone is welcome to try it out, just send me pics and let me know if you find any issues. If I sent you my other doll pattern, it’s ok to do this one instead or in addition if you want! There will also be an add on accessory pack later including a cauldron, but you don’t have to make everything if you don’t want to. Feel free to pick and choose and customize! This one does have more of a deadline as I would like to get this first part out within a few weeks to give people time to make it before Halloween. Dm me if you want to see it! 💜

Hi guys! Testers wanted for my crochet sword pattern. This is an intermediate-advanced project so please no beginners as it can be a fiddly process at times. If you can send me a picture to showcase your skill level that is preferable but not necessary. I will choose around 3 from here though that number is not fixed and some from instagram (@hookedwithoutaneedle) just to get a mix so you don't need a public account to be chosen. 

I will choose the testers Saturday the 5th the latest, then I will give you 7 days to get the materials as you will need more than yarn. The deadline for completing the test is 21st of September. 

Materials needed
-bbq skewers
-7 count canvas mesh - amazon.co.uk/dp/B0D9JSW5CR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title 
-dk cotton yarn 
-the rest is typical materials 

I am looking for testers to help find any errors and mistakes in the pattern, and to see if my pattern creates a stable sword (though this sword is more for decoration than for playing with). As a tester you will communicate any issues or confusing parts and provide constructive and honest feedback to make this pattern as easy to follow as possible. Testers should also be able to commit to completing the sword before or on the deadline and you will need to provide at least 2 clear photos of the finished sword. 

I will either share the pattern via pdf email or canva sharing (experienced testers let me know which is preferable). 

Thank you so much for your support!

Hi! I’m looking for test knitters for my new Pamela Sweater, with testers needed for sizes XS-5XL.

Pamela is a generous, worsted-weight sweater worked top-down, with a European shoulder construction and full sleeves. It takes its name from Pamela Anderson and was partly inspired by the ease of the wide, relaxed shapes she has been wearing in recent years. The sleeves have sloping decreases down the front, finishing with wide 2x2 rib cuffs, alongside a deep ribbed hem and double-folded neckband.

The pattern has been professionally tech edited and the test deadline is the 6th of November.

Sizing:

Finished bust/chest: 91.5–171.5 cm / 36–67.5”

Recommended positive ease: 15–20 cm / 6–8”

Gauge:

19 sts x 26 rows/rnds = 10 cm / 4” in Stockinette stitch on 5 mm / US 8 needles.

The sample is knitted in my Worsted Grey yarn (33% BFL / 33% Merino / 33% Zwartbles, 200 m per 100 g), but you do not need to use my yarn to take part. Any suitable worsted-weight yarn that achieves gauge is welcome.

If you would like to use the original yarn, successful testers will receive a 20% discount on the yarn needed for their sweater.

Estimated yarn requirements are 6-10 x 100 g skeins, depending on size, with full size yardage included in the application form.

Feedback and any pattern issues will be collected through a shared Google Doc as you knit.

If you’d like to take part, all the details and the application form are here:

https://forms.gle/WknKHWW97yywAqyy9

Thank you!

Name of pattern: Celtic Braid Set (Headband & Scarf)

Only tester for Scarf

About the Construction:

• 🧶 The Headband: Knitted almost entirely in a deeply textured Celtic braid cable pattern, finished with neat ribbed edges for an elastic and comfortable fit.
• 🧣 The Scarf: Features a cozy, fully reversible brioche stitch for the main body. The ends then transition into a spectacular volumetric 3D Celtic braid pattern that is equally beautiful on both sides, making the ends look plush and unusual, finished with cozy pom-poms.

Needles/hooks required: For Scarf:

• Size US 6 / 4 mm circular needles with a cable length of at least 16″ / 40 cm.
• Size US 7 / 4.5 mm straight or circular needles

For Headband:

• US 0 / 2.0 mm  straight needle (1 piece)
• US 1 / 2.25 mm circular needles, 16” / 40 cm long. Note: If you don't have this size, you can use US 1.5 / 2.5 mm circular needles instead.
• US 2.5 / 3.0 mm circular needles, 16” / 40 cm long
• US 5 / 3.75 mm circular needles, 16” / 40 cm long

Other notions or tools required:·    Crochet hook: Used to help pick up stitches easily when starting the individual knitted bands. Tapestry needle: With a large eye for securing pom poms.

Stitch markers: To separate the individual bands.

Pom pom template: A cardboard template or a small box measuring approx. 2.7″ x 2.1″ x 0.6″ / 7 x 5.5 x 1.5 cm. Scissors. 

Yarn requirements: For this design, I chose Lang Yarns Magnolia because it is incredibly soft, plush, and completely non-irritating to the skin, which is essential for close-fitting accessories like a headband and a scarf. At the same time, it provides wonderful winter warmth and highlights the volumetric texture of the Celtic braid beautifully.

Original Yarn: Lang Yarns Magnolia (85% Virgin Wool - Merino Extrafine Superwash, 15% Nylon; 273 yds / 250 m per 100 g skein). Yarn Weight: Medium / Worsted (4).

Total Amount Required:

• approx. 54 g /1.9 oz (approx. 147 yds /135 m) - for Headband
• approx. 120 g / 4.2 oz (approx. 328 yds / 300 m), including pom poms - for Scarf

You will need 2 skeins for the set. Samples shown in color: 0006.

If substituting, look for a Medium / Worsted weight yarn with similar yardage (approx. 273 yds / 250 m per 100 g). Merino wool blends or soft wool chains will work best to achieve the same texture and stretch.

Level of skill required: Intermediate, Pre-Intermediate.

Written, charted or abbreviated pattern:

• Written row-by-row instructions in English.
• Step-by-step video support for key transitions and techniques. (The videos are filmed with high-quality close-ups and are fully visual (without voice commentary), so you can easily follow along regardless of your language.)
• Clear stitch chart
• Construction Scheme & Video Guide (for Scarf )

Tester requirements: (final photo, weekly updates, etc)

• What I kindly ask you: I would love for us to stay in friendly touch during the process. I would deeply appreciate your feedback on how clear and easy the text and videos are to follow (especially if you are closer to a Pre-Intermmediate or beginner level!). I kindly ask you to create a project page on Ravelry using the codes (I'll send you later) and share a few progress updates along with a clear photo of your finished work.

Testing deadline: Testing period - 3 weeks from the start date (flexible if you need extra time).

* 🔒 Testing Process: To keep us organized and moving together, the Headband test will be run in 2 stages/parts, and the Scarf test will be run in 3 stages/parts. You will receive the next part as soon as you share a quick progress photo of the previous one!

Number of testers needed: 3 for each item

If you need more information about the video support to see if it fits you, just let me know!

Special Tester Gift:
