[CLOSED] Tester call for Crochet: Rusty the Chunky Horse

I need testers for my Rusty the Chunky Horse - Crochet ePattern

Due Date: 2 weeks from start of test (I will pick testers in the next couple of days)

Skill Level: Beginner - mostly simple stitches with a little sewing and a couple of colour changes required.

About the Pattern:

  • No-sew body base starts at the bottom of the feet and works up to the top of the head as a single piece, crocheting in the arms
  • Sewing required for ears, nose, mane and tail
  • Approx. 20cm tall with DK yarn and 2.5mm hook, 35cm tall with chunky yarn and 4mm hook
  • Mix and match with my other Chunky patterns. For example, make yourself a horse groom by using this pattern to modify Otis the Chunky Groom

If you’ve tested any of my recent chunky or pig patterns, the base of this pattern is identical. I also have many more patterns coming soon, all designed to be mixed and matched thanks to the shared base.

Additional Requirements:

  • You can use any yarn and the appropriate hook size, and experiment with different colours. This is a great pattern to make using plush yarn!

  • The instructions include options for either safety eyes or crocheted eyes, so do not worry if you do not have any safety eyes

  • You must be willing to provide feedback on any parts of the pattern that are unclear or if you spot any errors / typos

  • I would also like feedback on the level of difficulty.

  • A journal entry of the finished item would be amazing, but not required - however, I would love to see a photo of your finished amigurumi.

  • If you would like to do a mashup with any of my other patterns, let me know in the comments.

Thanks for looking :grinning:

I would love to test! Using a 4mm crochet hook. As always I’d use a mixer of Yarn Bee Velvety Smooth and Baby Bee Adore-a-ball, with maybe a little Yarn Bee Fur The Moment to make it have “feathers” along the legs and arms.

Being that it’s cold, I’d like to add the scarf from the reindeer pattern, if that’s okay with you.

Would love to test for you again! Why do you have so many adorable patterns?? :sob::joy:
Ille likely use bernat or some sort of chenille if I can’t find the right shade in bernat. Likely hook size 5. :heart:
Eta- it’s looking like Loops & Threads Petite Purl is the yarn I’d use

I’m a beginner/slightly medium and this looks really cute to try!

(I can do from 2mm all the way to 6-7mm)

I would love to do a bride and groom, the bride a horse and the groom with a donkey mane. The bride for the long mane and the donkey mane for the groom because of it being shorter.
