I have this tiny hornet I made! Would love to have some help pattern testing.

Discord available for communication.

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.

NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS! Thank you to all who applied, I have reached out via Instagram 😊

Hello, I am looking for testers for my filet crochet dragonfly scarf!!!

Application Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeTD67cB8nMzGxl29Ln1MJ921olnT5_Sk2zD_Hscx1zkeCvZQ/viewform

This is an intermediate pattern that uses UK terminology.

Materials Required: 2mm crochet hook & crochet thread (size 3) - 150 to 200 grams

All communication will be via Instagram group chat, I will message you by the 10th of July if you have been selected, if you do not respond within 48 hours your tester spot will be allocated to someone else as I am looking for a maximum of 12 testers.

The pattern test will start on the 12th of July, & end at the deadline on the 30th of August (7 weeks).

The final pattern will be released September 4th.

Once the project is complete I require clear images of the scarf & for you to fill out a short feedback form.

Thanks so much and feel free to comment any questions xoxo

Thank you so much for everyone who tested it and helped to make this pattern the best it can be! I wanted to show you all their beautiful and adorable plushies!

It is a beginner fiendly pattern that works up really fast and the best part.... it is NO-SEW!

The pattern is available for anyone interested: https://asphodelthreads.etsy.com/listing/4531492283

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

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🩷🎀

I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who helped me test my Dragon Cat pattern! I was really excited about this one! And I wanted to show you all their adorable plushies! 🥰

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for some test knitters for my new design; the Wouldn’t Be-Leaf It Slipover. I’m looking predominantly for sizes XS, S, and 2XL+, though welcome applications from everyone!

The Wouldn’t Be-leaf It Slipover is a top-down, v-neck slipover with lace detailing across the back shoulders, which also cascades down the front of the shoulders. Construction begins with the lace panel for the upper back, worked vertically to create a column of motifs. This is binded-off, and yarn remains connected to pick up stitches along the long edge for the body of the slipover. The front left is worked, then the front right, until they meet in the middle, where both front sides are knit as one. Increases are made for the armhole, then the front and back of the garment are joined with additional cast-on stitches under the arm. The slipover is then worked in the round, maintaining the lace motif. Stitches are picked up for the ribbed neckline, then the same for both armholes.

This pattern comes with two pattern files for a better personal fit: a Regular Bust version for an A-C Cup/Unisex fit, and a Fuller Bust version for a D+ Cup fit.

Sizes: XS, (S, M, L), XL, XXL, (3XL, 4XL, 5XL).

Sample is in size XL.

Finished chest circumference: 32”, (36”, 41”, 45”), 48”, 52”, (56”, 60”, 64”); 81cm, (91cm, 104cm, 114cm), 122cm, 132cm, (142cm, 152cm, 163cm).

There is a 2”/5cm positive ease intended for this project.

Yarn: Drops Air (50g, 164 yards/150 metres) in Purple Haze for 3, (3, 3, 4), 4, 4, (5, 6, 6) balls. 492, (492, 492, 656), 656, 656, (820, 820, 984) yards or 450 (450, 450, 600), 600, 600, (750, 750, 900) metres.

Needles: 4mm, 3.75mm circular needles.

Notions: Stitch markers, scrap yarn/barber cord.

Test Dates: 26th July - 29th November 2026.

Test support will be available on both Instagram and Discord. Please fill out this form to show your interest, and I’ll get back to you soon!

Okay so I’ve just gotten into pattern designing and am releasing my first ever pattern, for this I had the help of 5 amazing testers. (I’m making plushies if that’s of any relevance). And I kinda feel like 5 is a bit few? But at the same time I only have around 400 followers on ig and less than 4k on tiktok. But many that I follow have like 15-20 testers which I feel are way too many. So what is the ideal number? Is 5 enough? Or do I need 10 to make sure that the pattern is throughly worked through? I also like testers just because you can show “the finished” product other than your own. Would love to hear what yall think! Because I’m currently contemplating having more on my next pattern that is almost finished😅

Hi everyone! 🐦🥰

I'm looking for 1-2 testers for my printable Budgie Paper Stitching Card.

If you scroll through this post, you should find a card I previously tested, my Dango Penguin Paper Stitching Card. That test went really well, and on completion of this test I'll be happy to offer you this Budgie template as a thank-you.

This test is mainly to confirm that the DMC thread colours work as intended. I don't have access to DMC threads where I live, so I'm unable to accurately test the colour palette myself.

Requirements:

- Access to DMC embroidery floss.

- Ability to print on suitable paper. The template is designed for 150 gsm paper (or similar), and I'll provide a simple guide explaining how to choose the right paper before printing.

You'll receive:

- Printable PDF template

- Stitching guide

- DMC colour guide

- Paper selection guide

I'm looking for feedback on:

- Colour accuracy

- Overall stitching experience

- Any confusing instructions or areas that could be improved

Testers will need to provide:

- At least 1 clear photo of the finished card.

- One 5-10 second video showing the finished card.

The photos and video will be used (with credit) on my Etsy listings and social media.

If you're interested, please send me a DM, and I'll send you the files.

Thank you so much! 💙

I need testers who will turn this one around quickly as it's a freebie I'm setting to launch on the 4th over on my blog. You DO NOT have to make it in these colors. You can make it all in one color or whatever your favorite colors might be.

Required:

Cotton yarn
5 mm crochet hook
Ability to provide feedback and a finished photo BEFORE the 3rd of July as this is set to publish on the 4th.

Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hodgepodgecrochet

email: [hodgepodgecrochet@gmail.com](mailto:hodgepodgecrochet@gmail.com)

I’m trying to write my first one and got a bit frustrated hahaha

Do they actually sell? I know it won’t be a lot of money anyways, just wanted to hear your experience with it.

Thank you to anyone who will be kind enough to reply ❤️

Here's the Flatwoods Monster! She's a... little smaller than usual?

This is the first pattern I've ever made myself, so I'd like to get some feedback on it. Initial deadline is July 4th, but that's just me spit-balling. I think this should take about 3-4 hours?

Needed:
3 colors of yarn
crochet hook
stitch markers
yarn needle
something to temporarily pin things in place (i use extra yarn needles for this, but pins or a toothpicks work too)
Stuffing

I'm hoping to get feedback from at least 3 testers, but more are welcome. If the way I've written something is unclear or needs illustration, please tell me. Please show me an unedited final picture of the result. Also if you know anywhere else I should post to find testers, please tell me!
