Edit: Wow, thank you -so- much for your enthusiasm, everyone! Testing filled up over the weekend, and if you applied, you should have heard if you've been accepted to the test.

If I didn't choose you as a tester, (please, know that it was hard to choose, many of you have amazing pictures on Ravelry and IG! 💙, but I had more applicants for testing then I had spots!), you can stay connected for further tests on Yarnpond!

Alright, yeay for another testing call!  I'm looking for crochet testers for the upcoming Falling Leaves Beach Bag Pattern!

This bag pattern only has one size (but is easily adjustable!).  As written, it has a 15 inch, (38 cm) circumference, and a depth of 13.5 inches  (34.5 cm).

Yarn shown is *Rowan Creative Linen (50% cotton, 50% linen) in the colourway "Stormy". 

It uses approximately 300 yards (274 meters) of worsted-weight yarn, and a *3.75 mm (US F) hook.

I'm looking for 8 testers for this bag - I'm also specifically looking for testers to test the large-print/screen reader accessible version of this pattern! So if that's something you're willing/able to do, just make a note of that on your Yarnpond application, and I'll send you the link to the large print pattern.  

To test, you will need to make a Yarnpond account (you do need to sign up if you haven't before, but, don't worry, it's free, all you need is an e-mail address!) From there, you can link your Instagram and Ravelry accounts, if you have either. 

 

And, for those who can't use Ravelry, please, don't worry, you don't have to have a Ravelry account to participate - if you're a new tester, I just need somewhere I can see some examples of your work, so Instagram, or even a blog, is perfect!

Deadline for the test is September 1rst, 2024,  and as usual, my testing dates can usually be extended if there's a need, so don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you're going to have trouble meeting the deadline.  And, as always, testers who complete the test will receive the finished pattern for free, as well as two patterns of their choice from my self-published patterns.

If you want to be notified about future testing calls, the best place to be is in my testing group over on Yarnpond!  Folks there will get notified automatically when I post a new test (and there's no requirement to test anything - test only what  you want to test!)  I also post testing calls here on the blog, and to my other social media platforms (Facebook, Patreon, Instagram, Tumblr, and a  Discord Server!), as well as sending out calls to those on my mailing list, as well, so hopefully, anyone who's interested won't miss a testing call!  

And if you know someone else who might be interested, please, as always feel free to share this post with them! I don't usually fill my pattern tests, so, the more testers the better!
