Pattern Testing Application
I have spent many years testing pattern for other designers. It has been the best experience. I have gotten to meet so many wonderful artisans. I know how important it is to have a second or third pair of eyes on a pattern. I am truly honored that you are interested in being a pattern tester for MHS Designs! I appreciate your time and effort in making my patterns user-friendly. Below is some need-to-know info on my pattern testing process. If all this sounds good to you, submit your testing application through the link below!
Please read thoroughly before applying.
What is a pattern tester?
Pattern testing is when a crocheter agrees to follow and try out an unreleased pattern that is still in the beta stages of development. Testers typically agree to note issues and discrepancies found in the pattern as well as note completed measurements, material usage and final thoughts of the pattern.
Perks of Testing
Whether you’re new to testing patterns or you’re practically a professional, the process of testing can be a really great experience. There is the obvious perk of getting first look at new patterns! It is also an interesting challenge making items that may or may not be perfected yet and getting to work with me on making great finished items. In my personal experience, testing patterns is a great way to learn new techniques, styles, and stitches by getting the chance to implement them right away. Plus, it’s a lot of fun!
Requirements
I require a few things from my testers:
- Must know basic crochet stitches and have experience reading patterns.
- SIZE: You need to be able to model the item you are making. Please only apply for sizes that you or someone you can readily photograph can wear.
- PHOTOS: I cannot stress how important QUALITY photos are. You must provide 2-3 quality photos of the completed project with at least one of it modeled.
- SOCIAL MEDIA: You must post to social media at least at least one well-lit photo of your finished project and one progress photo. Additional photos are appreciated, but not required.
- FEEDBACK: You must finish and submit required notes and photos on the provided form by the deadline date.
- You agree to protect my intellectual property by not copying, reproducing or distributing my pattern.
Here are a few other things that I appreciate greatly, but don’t require at this time:
- Adding your project to Ravelry
- Posting extra progress photos or additional project shots
- Promoting pattern releases on social media
Deadlines
Deadlines are so very important. Often pattern notes are crucial to releasing patterns on time, so it is important that notes are submitted by the required deadlines. Failure to do so will result in an invoice for the pattern and removal from further testing opportunities. Please only apply for patterns that you can finish in the allotted time frame.
Your Skills
I like to use testers that have some experience with crochet, however, this does not mean that beginners should not apply. If you are a beginner, the expectation is for you to learn the stitches required to complete the pattern on your own. If you need resources and videos to accomplish this, please do not be afraid to ask in the group chat. I will be happy to provide links for you to learn stitches and techniques you are unfamiliar with.
Patterns
Patterns that are in the testing phase are unfinished. They may be missing photos or tutorial links. They may also have typos and errors. By agreeing to be a pattern tester, it is important to recognize that the patterns are not in finished condition. I simply ask for your help and patience with errors.
I cannot choose everyone. As much as I would like to accommodate everyone that applies, I only have a limited number of tester slots for each pattern. To increase your chances of being chosen, be sure that you have quality photos on your Instagram page. I’m looking for photos in natural light.
Materials
Testers are responsible for purchasing the materials needed to complete the test pattern (including a yarn similar in composition, weight and style as suggested for a pattern). Testers will be contacted prior to any testing with a list of materials needed to confirm availability to test that pattern.
Compensation
Pattern testers will be provided with a finished copy of the PDF of the pattern they are testing. They will also be featured on social media, either via stories or main feed, and credited for their work and photo in such posts.
