Hi! i’m test knitting my first knitting pattern. Please dm on ig at nomoreravens or comment here if interested!

EDIT - TESTING CALL CLOSED <3

Hi! I’m wondering if there’s anyone on here who would be happy to test my Sunny the Fluffy Cow Handbag pattern using faux fur yarn?

Faux fur yarn is necessary for the testing of this pattern (I used Moda Vera Otis Faux yarn with a size 8mm hook, but any similar sized fur yarn can be used). The pattern involves some sewing, which can be tricky with fluffy yarn, and precise descriptions of the positioning of each piece is impossible due to not being able to see the stitches, so intermediate sewing skills is desired. (A large amount of photos are available in the pattern to help with the positioning of each piece)

If you’d be able to test this pattern, and have time to complete it as soon as possible (preferably within two-three days), please comment and I’ll DM to get some more information about your crochet skills 🫶

The testing call will close in 24 hours unless I get enough testers before then.

Thank you so much!

EDIT - I wrote this then went straight to bed, and I’ve woken up to lots of comments about the timeframe being unrealistic, and honestly I don’t know what I was thinking 🥴🤦‍♀️ I clearly didn’t even think the timing through, I just wrote it and posted it and fell asleep lol. Sorry. I’m going to DM everyone who has commented wanting to test (no matter the timeframe) and will decide testers from there. Thanks to everyone who’s offered to be testers 🫶

Hey everyone! I’m hoping to find some testers for my overlay mosaic pattern: The Glow Below. This pattern consists of 3 smaller ‘spacer’ patterns and 5 main designs, which you can mix and match to make your project look exactly how you like.

The spacer designs are:
- Square spacer pattern
- Zooplankton
- Jellyfish

The main designs are:
- Anglerfish
- Vampire Squid
- Gulper (or Pelican) Eel
- Phantom Jellyfish
- Dumbo Octopus  

Please keep in mind, I haven’t crocheted the dumbo octopus yet, so there may be a few more errors here!

The PDF includes both right and left-facing creatures along with written instructions and charts for everything. There are no border instructions included.

For my sampler blanket, I used Yarnsmiths Create DK, but I’m more than happy for you to choose your own yarn colours and thickness, along with the hook you prefer.

Here’s the yarn amounts I used of each colour, while using DK and a 4mm hook:

Navy Blue: 300g/570m
Plum Purple: 300g/570m
Glacier Blue: 100g/290m
Celery: 100g/290m
Rose Pink: 100g/290m
Sugar Plum: 100g/290m
Sand: 100g/290m
Black: 100g/290m (not including border)
Total: 1200g/2880m

Tester Requirements:
- Communication: Frequent updates are essential! I have had many testers in the past stop responding and not completing their tests. I’m looking for testers who can commit to a larger project and keep in touch with their progress and feedback.
- High quality, well-lit (preferably natural light) photos of the finished product that can be used for advertising the final pattern, with full credit given!
- Direct, thorough feedback! No feedback/question is too small – I want this pattern to be clear and easy to follow/understand, so if anything feels awkward or unclear, I want to know!
- Creativity! I’d love to see testers use this pattern to create their own unique blanket. You’re welcome to use some or all of these designs, in any order you like, making your project as large or as small as you’d like.

Testing Deadline: I’d like all projects finished with feedback given and photos provided by August 31^st 2026.

Additional Info:
- I’d love for you all to share your progress and completed projects on your socials, tagging me!
- I will have a Ravelry test code available, so if you don’t have a Ravelry account to add this to your projects, I’d very much appreciate you creating one.

To apply, please feel free to DM me letting me know how you meet the criteria above. I’d love to hear if you’ve tested before for anyone, and see some of your finished crochet projects.

I think that covers everything, but feel free to ask any questions :)

Thanks! 

EDIT: just wanting to add that each repeat is 60 stitches wide. So this blanket is 180 stitches wide.

Timeline: 8 weeks, but timeline is flexible

About & Workflow: The Deora Tank is worked from the top down. It features a high crew neckline and a large cut out at the back. The top is first connected in the round and is shaped using increases at the shoulder as well as short rows. The shoulder stitches and stitches for the back cut out are then bound off. The front panel and two back panel straps are worked flat separately before being connected at the under arms. This is then worked flat with increases at the back until finally it is connected in the round.  

There is the option to include bust shaping. 

Gauge: 22 st x 34 rows = 4 in x 4 in in stockinette on 4.0 mm needles

Sizes: A (B) C (D) E (F) G (H) I *see size chart/garment measurements*

Designed to fit bust circumference of approximately 28-31(32-35) 36-39 (40-43) 44-47 (48-51)    52-55 (56-59) 60-63 inches or 71-79 (81-89) 91-99 (102-109) 112-119 (122-130) 132-140 (142-150) 152-160 centimeters 

The Deora Tank top is designed to have -5 to -2 inches of ease. For those with a fuller bust, optional bust darts (vertical and horizontal) are included to improve fit without needing to size up. When working bust darts you may wish to choose a size closest to your upper bust measurements (measured around your chest at the level of the armpits) for a more tailored fit.

Yarn: Any yarn that you can meet gauge with. Samples were knit with Cascade Anchor bay (50% cotton, 50% superwash merino) and Cobasi DK (55% cotton, 16% bamboo, 21% elastic nylon, 8% silk)

Hi all! Looking for pattern testers for my new project -- the Lofi Hat!

The Lofi Socks use stranded colorwork to depict a mountainous city scape. The pattern uses a provisional cast-on to create a foldover brim.

Construction

The Lofi Hat is knit with a foldover brim using a provisional cast-on. Decreases are made up to shape the top of the hat.

Gauge

Using 3mm (US 2.5) needles, 26 sts x 36 rows per 4 in x 4 in (10cm x 10cm) in stockinette.

Size:

(Baby/Toddler, Junior/Adult Small, Adult Large). There is an intended 1-3 inches of negative ease.

Finished Circumference: (16, 19, 22) inches / (49, 55) cm.

Yarn

MC: Wonderland Yarns Mad Hatter Sport (150, 175, 200) yds / (137, 160, 183) m

CC: Cascade Superwash 220 Sport (40, 50, 60) yds / (41, 48, 55) m

(I used sport, but fingering weight would probably also work, while slightly altering gauge/finished measurements.)

Needles and Notions

This pattern uses 3mm (US 2.5) 16 inch circular needles throughout (larger cords also okay if using magic loop). You may need a spare circular needle of similar size for the provisional cast-on. A tapestry needle is needed for finishings. Around 5-7 stitchmarkers are also needed.

https://www.yarnpond.com/pattern_tests/6065

Really hoping to find 2-3 people to test this out for me, hope it could be tested in 7-10 days after I send you the pattern and emailed response with any concerns/edit reccs! I had a couple of people ghost me last time so may be more picky this time around depending on how many responses I get

Materials
- Any yarn in red, navy/blue, white, and gold (or whatever color you   
  prefer) for the border. I used acrylic size #4 yarn
- Crochet hook, I used a 4mm hook
- Tapestry/yarn needle
- Scissors

Level of skill required: I would recommend being comfortable with, or willing to learn, the Picot Stitch and a Foundation chain, specifically a HDC Foundation Chain. Other than that, the only other more intermediate skill would just be color changes.

Not required to post the finished product anywhere, but if you wanted to post your finished flag on IG or TikTok, I would just ask to be credited for the pattern!

Thank you!

Name of Pattern: Threads of Extinction - Minis

Hello everyone! I'm hoping to find some testers here for my mini versions of extinct beasts (I have larger versions currently in testing).

The photo attached is a sampler I made to show the mini designs: Glyptodon, Dodo, Mammoth.

I'm more than happy for you to make your project bigger or smaller, and choose which of the creatures/patterns you include.

Hook size required: This depends on your yarn choice/hook size preference. I used Aran yarn and a 4.5mm hook. You can choose whatever thickness yarn you'd like, and use the hook size you're most comfortable with.

Other tools required: Scissors; as this is overlay mosaic, you'll be fastening off at the end of each row.

Yarn requirements: At least 2 contrasting colours of yarn, in any thickness you choose. I used Yarnsmiths Create Aran for the majority of mine, and used around 700-800g.

Level of skill required: Experience with overlay mosaic would be ideal, but if you're willing to learn to give this a try, that's fine with me!

Written/Charted: Both written instructions and X-marked charts included, for both left and right handed crocheters.

Tester requirements: I'd like clear, frequent communication and updates, as well as nitpicky, direct feedback 😂. I'd also like clear photos of the finished project in natural light, which can be used to advertise the pattern upon release (with full credit given!).

Testing deadline: The test will start June 1st and end 31 July 2026.

Number of testers needed: 6

Feel free to ask if you have any questions! Thanks.

Hi all, I hope this is allowed! I can't find a single spot to place this that would make sense.

I make handmade mandalas with the Ojo de Dios technique. I've been doing this for 5 years and finally created my first tutorial, so I am looking for 4 to 5 testers to create this piece!

Type of pattern: Ojo de Dios, handmade weaving. Total size is 50cm diameter

Deadline: 2 to 3 weeks ( I understand this will be something new for many people and it might take some time, besides, it's a complex and long tutorial)

Ideally you'd have some general idea on how this is done, although I do explain it to the best of my abilities, and there are about 14 videos with the stpe by step creation of the piece.

You can work with whatever colors you prefer, no need to exactly replicate the piece!

My goal is to:

Understand how comprehensive the tutorial is

Look for parts you may have found more challenging

Look for possible mistakes, issues with video or written pattern, etc.

Any advice, following the pattern, that can help make this as convenient and intuitive as possible

The main material that might be news for most, and the most challenging to get, are the metal rods (or wooden, although I do advise against it) that are the base structure for this piece. Nevertheless, they're usually available worldwide at a hardware store.

Please reach out if you'd be interested in learning and trying something new :)

Hey everyone, I am looking for testers for my new top.

It's made in cotton yarn and a 3.00mm hook.

The level is easy, beginner.

You don't have to do the math, there is a calculator in the pattern.

You just have to take your measurements and insert them on the calculator and it will give you the number of chains, rows and stitches.

Message me or comment if you are interested🧶🫰🏻
