:loudspeaker: PATTERN TESTER CALL: THE ORANGE WAFFLE STITCH FRINGE DRESS

Brand: cathy&co yarn
Testing Duration: 5-6weeks".
Slots Available: 3–4 Dedicated Testers Only

Hello Crocheters! :yarn:

I am thrilled to announce an open tester call for my latest premium design: The Orange Waffle Stitch Fringe Dress under my brand cathy&co yarn. This is a Made-to-Measure (M2M) pattern meticulously crafted to ensure a perfect, custom bodycon fit for any body shape.

:glowing_star: What Makes This Pattern Unique?
This pattern is specifically designed to elevate your craft by prioritizing 1.0 mm micro-crochet work. By combining a 1.0 mm hook with Lace Weight Acrylic Yarn (approx. 12 bundles), this dress achieves an incredibly dense, luxurious, boutique-quality fabric that hugs the body perfectly without large gaping holes.

:hammer_and_wrench: Key Technical Elements to Test:

  • The Foundation: A stretch-friendly Foundation Double Crochet (fdc) bust ring.
  • The Upper Body Fit: A sleek half-shoulder/tank-style top featuring a specific 4-waffle-box width stay.
  • Clean Finishes: An armhole border round designed to straighten raw edges cleanly, and a neckline decrease round for a gap-free fit.
  • The Vertical Collar: An attached-as-you-go vertical ribbed collar starting with a 50-chain height extension.
  • The Boho Hemline: A stunning fringe/tassel border attached stitch-by-stitch, which requires strict “Hand Wash Only” care instructions to maintain longevity.

:clipboard: Tester Requirements:

  1. Provide constructive technical feedback regarding stitch counts, clarity of the row-by-row instructions, and overall sizing fit.
  2. Complete the project within the 3-week timeline from the date you receive the draft pattern.
  3. Take clear, high-quality photos of your finished dress (and give permission for cathy&co yarn to feature them).

:open_mailbox_with_raised_flag: How to Apply:
If you are ready to challenge your skills with micro-crochet and create a stunning, custom statement piece, Send a Direct Message (DM) or drop a comment below with your previous crochet experience!

“:warning: Important Update: Since this is a detailed micro-crochet project using a 1.0mm hook, I want to make sure everyone has plenty of time without feeling rushed. I am officially extending the testing duration to 5-6 weeks instead of 3 weeks! Lace weight yarn or thread size 10 is recommended. Feel free to click the shop link below to apply!”

Is this test being conducted here on Ribblr?

What I mean by that is, did you write the pattern using Ribbuild?

Thanks.
