[CLOSED] Tester call for Crochet: Knit look cozy cardi

I need testers for my Knit look cozy cardi - Crochet ePattern
Click pattern photo to apply:

Hi everyone! This oversized cardigan is super comfy and easy to make. This pattern is made to measure so you can make in any size (but it does involve a little maths). I used about 800g of Aran yarn with a 5mm and 6mm hook but you can use any yarn you want.

I don’t know how quickly people crochet cardigans but I’ve been working on this on and off for a while so I was going to suggest mid October but please let me know if. You think this is too long/ too short.

I’d like testers to let me know if my instructions are clear enough and Ideally some photos of the finished item.

Testers will receive the pattern at the end if they complete the pattern on time.

Feel free to ask any questions :blush:

I don’t do size graded patterns so it is made to measure and can be made to any size. But as a guide I’m a size small and I used under 800g of Aran yarn. I’ve included the measurements I used as well

I used deramores studio Aran acrylic yarn in poppy with a 5mm and 6mm hook but again because its made to measure you could make with a different weight. Hope that helps x

Basically you yarn over and then I go into stitch and pull through the 2 loops on the hook. So a sl st with a yarn over before hand.

Oh, I guess I couldve thought about that before :person_facepalming: I have been crocheting for 6 years and never knew that. I would love to test, this wouod be my first crochet clothing I have ever made. It might take a little longer, I will let you know if I need more time.

Ooo very nice! I applied I have a lot of yellow yarn that I accidentally caked and lost the label of so I have no way of knowing if it’s enough for me since I have no idea the yards or even if it’s machine washable :rofl: (if not I have a younger cousin who’s smaller than me :joy:) since the yarns splitty I would use a 5 MM hook so there’s a chance it can look more lacy or holey so if thats okay feel free to consider my application :smile:

As for the deadline I honestly have no idea as this would be my first garment (if accepted) so there’s a chance it could be longer or shorter for me to complete so there’s also a chance I might ask for some extension to the deadline
