Have Pattern, Need Tester

[pfirsch]

I have written a crochet pattern for a small bag that I would like to one day submit to crochetme.

 

I was wondering if someone would be so kind as offer his or her services as a pattern tester. The pattern is very simple and small--great project for stash reduction.

 

If you're interested, please E-mail me at pfirsch@gmx.net so that we can go over the details.

That is a gorgeous bag. I love the bright colors.

[Donna]

Hi, pfirsch! Love that bag!

[pfirsch]

Thanks, ladies! Glad you like the bag.

[Frangipani]

I currently make purses similar to the small bag above. Hmmm, what does a "pattern tester" do exactly?

[pfirsch]

Well, I need somebody to make the bag using the pattern I wrote to see if it turns out the same way as when I made it. You follow the pattern to the letter and let me know if there are any errors or if something is unclear.

 

There is no gauge to speak of and no particular yarn that you have to use; so, it's a good scrap project. If you E-mail me, I can give the rest of the details.

 

I hope there are other people out there who will test this pattern because if there are at least two people who can make it and have the bags both turn out the same, then I can pretty much count on the pattern being "crochetable" by the masses.

 

Hope to hear from you soon!

I did read an E-mail from you today, but it was the only one besides the first one that I got. I replied, but it came back to me undelivered; so, I sent you an E-mail via Crochetville telling you what happened.

 

I will try again to send you the E-mail.

[pfirsch]

Thanks to everybody who has shown interest in testing the pattern for me.

 

If everyone who I've been in contact with is still along for the ride, I won't be needing anyone else as a tester. Thanks again for volunteering your time, skills, and scrap yarn.

[Donna]

Glad you got your testers, pfirsch!

It looks great! I can't wait for the pattern to be published somewhere.

 

What yarn did you use? I'm noticing speckles of some sort... <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/scratchhead.gif" />
