:deer: Hi everyone! I am sure some of you know me as I’ve been a tester for quite a while. Well I have a little secret :face_with_hand_over_mouth: I have finally built some courage and created my very own pattern! Christmas is my favourite time of year so of course my first pattern is Christmas related :wink:

I am looking for a few wonderful pattern testers to help me test my newest holiday design, Randy the Reindeer - Crochet ePattern

If you love semi low-sew projects and want to add a bit of handmade magic to your holiday season, I’d love to have you on board!

About the Pattern:

  • Skill Level: Advanced-beginner/Intermediate (includes a little bit of face sculpting and some slightly tricky techniques (maybe?), but nothing too difficult!)

  • Finished Size: Just over 30ish cm tall.

  • Construction: Mostly low-sew! The arms, legs, and tail are all crocheted right in as you go. You will need to sew on the ears, lip, antlers, and the head-to-body.

Materials Needed:

  • Yarn: Soft chenille or velvet yarn, but feel to use whatever you want! It would be nice to see how it turns out with other yarns.

  • Hook: 4.5 mm crochet hook (or whatever hook size matches your preferred tension with your yarn).

  • Standard amigurumi supplies (stitch markers, safety eyes, stuffing, tapestry needle, etc.).

Tester Requirements:

  • Create a public project on Ribblr and provide helpful feedback on clarity, stitch counts, level of skill, spelling and instructions.

  • Post clear, well-lit photos of your finished Randy once completed.

  • Communicate any errors, typos, or confusing parts into the chat (not in your Journal) so I can polish the pattern before its official release.

How to Apply:

If you’d like to test, please drop a comment below letting me know:

  1. What yarn, crochet hook and colours you’d like to use!

  2. Add a Reindeer :deer: or Christmas “something” :christmas_tree: :wrapped_gift: to spread the christmas cheer

Applications close in a few days, and I’ll select testers shortly after. Thank you so much for your support and happy crocheting! :heart:

Due Date: 29 November

I’d love to test your reindeer in either acrylic with a 3mm hook or chenille with a size 5mm hook. Bring on the Christmas :wrapped_gift: patterns!

Would love to test for you since you have been a great tester for me on several occasions! Would use some type of wt 5 yarn similar to parfait chunky with a 5mm hook. Would use similar colors to you. I like the “traditional” colors. :christmas_tree::mrs_claus::santa_claus::wrapped_gift:
