Hi everyone! This is my first time writing a pattern and im just unsure how to go about this!
I would like to choose testers on ribblr. Do i go to my profile and create the pattern first and then go find testers? How does all of this work? Its making me so nervous hahaha
This is exactly what i needed! Thank you so much!!
This might have additional information
Oo welcome to the pattern making world 
!
Here are a couple tips from someone that’s been making patterns for about 1-2 years!
Pattern making:
Inspiration: whether it’s a drawing you made, a specific item you’d like to make, or just something you’ve made up in your mind, inspiration is a pretty important role in pattern creating! to get inspiration, I’d look up the style you like (plushies or accessories), and figure out what you want to make.
Techniques: After you decide what you want to make it’s time to figure out, what techniques you need to use to get the outcome you want! to figure this out, you will need to analyze your item or inspirational idea. They’re are a couple common techniques that quite a lot people use in they’re own patterns, those include; bobble stitches for arms/legs/ears, crocheting together legs/ears, crocheting on pieces.
since I assume your new to creating patterns, I would create some really simple patterns just to get used to the feel of them! I also recommend reading and trying out other creators patterns so you can more understand how they work, and why. (if you’d like me to go more in depth about these techniques, and how increasing and decreasing works feel free to message me)!
Basic stitch count Patterns: the universal pattern count, is pretty common, and really great for making round objects.
abbreviations:
The pattern goes like this:
see the pattern? 6 gets added to the stitch count everytime you add another sc into the round.
You can totally go against this pattern, but it’s a good place to start! You definitely do not have to go all the way to 36, you can go all the way to 24, or stop at 12 depending on what size and shape you’re going for!
Creating your pattern in Ribblr: using Ribbuild is fairly simple and easy, when opening a new pattern they will prompt you with guide!
And that’s the basic idea for making patterns!
Here’s a post I made about testing a little while ago!
