(CLOSED) Editor/Pattern Tester Wanted!

:cherry_blossom::sparkles: Editor/Pattern Tester Wanted! :sparkles::cherry_blossom:

Hey there, friends! :two_hearts:

UPDATE HERE: I have decided to have more than 1 editor in case one is unable to help out so that another one can I will make the decision either later on today or tomorrow thank you everyone for responding and reaching out I wasn’t expecting to get so many people :cherry_blossom:

I’m looking for an awesome editor to work closely with me on my crochet patterns. I’m not just needing someone to check my grammar or tweak a sentence here or there — I’m looking for someone who is hands-on and detail-obsessed (in the best way!). :yarn:

Here’s what I’m looking for:

  • Grammar & Formatting: Catch grammar mistakes, typos, weird phrasing, confusing instructions, etc.
  • Pattern Accuracy: Read through every stitch and make sure it makes sense before you even pick up your hook or needles.
  • Pattern Testing: Actually make the pattern — crochet it as you go through editing! (Materials and timelines will always be discussed ahead of time so no surprises.)
  • Live Editing: While you’re making it, note any issues, confusing parts, or spots that need improvement, and update the pattern document as needed.
  • Photography: Snap a few clear pictures of the finished item (in natural light if possible!) to show the finished project and anything you noticed along the way.
  • Feedback: Be honest but kind! I really want someone who will say “Hey, this part was confusing” instead of pretending it was fine. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Compensation:
Instead of traditional payment, you’ll be gifted free access to all of my published patterns as you complete each one. :sparkles:
PLUS you’ll get early access to my never-before-posted, unreleased patterns — basically, you’ll be part of my inner creative circle! :yarn::sparkling_heart:
Bonus Perk: I’m also offering exclusive custom pattern requests just for my editor — if there’s something special you’d love to see turned into a pattern, I’ll make it happen for you! :glowing_star:

Must be:

  • Comfortable crocheting at beginner skill level or higher.
  • Detail-oriented but still positive and easy to work with!
  • Able to take good-quality photos with a phone or camera (nothing fancy, just clear and bright).
  • Communicative — let me know if you spot something weird or need clarification.
  • Excited about cute, cozy, creative projects (because that’s the whole vibe here!) :tulip:

If this sounds like your jam, please message me with:

  • A little about you and your experience
  • A few photos of finished crochet/knit projects you’ve made
  • Your editing or testing experience (if any — not required but a big plus!)
  • Your general availability (how many projects a month you could take on)

Thanks so much! I can’t wait to find someone who’s just as passionate about perfecting patterns as I am. :thread::sparkling_heart: Let’s make some magic happen together! :sparkles:
