I would be willing to test but doubt I could make the deadline.  Would buy the pattern when available.

It is such a pretty pattern. About how much yarn would be used?

Hi there,

 

For the sample I made, I used about 42 balls of yarn (about 380 yards each). If you are keen to test but don't feel like making such a big blanket, you can choose to make just a square and complete testing the border pattern as well.

Hi there,

 

If you are keen to test but worried about meeting the deadline, how about considering completing a smaller project? I only need the instructions for the square as well as the border to be tested. The actual size of the project does not matter to me.

I'm going to pass, I have some other stuff going on. Sorry. It really is gorgeous.

If you still need a tester I can do it if its just for a square and the border like you explained above.  Its a very pretty pattern. Would love to help you out.  I have tested for other people. My latest project I just completed was a round jacobs ladder baby blanket. Its in the show and tell section under babies and toddlers.
