Pattern testing
The Testers' Circle
Help me test new patterns before they go out into the world.
Before a pattern goes on sale, a few makers work it from the PDF and tell me where they got stuck, what was unclear and what they loved. Their notes turn a beta into a pattern you can trust.
What you get
- The pattern you test is yours to keep
- One more pattern of your choice from the shop, free
- 15% off every pattern for as long as you are testing with me
- Your finished piece in the Made by you gallery, with your name, if you like
How it works
- Fill in the form on this page. You'll get an email to confirm your address.
- When a test opens, I write to the testers whose crafts match, with the patterns and the deadline.
- You choose a pattern, get the PDF and work it at your own pace before the deadline.
- You send me short notes and a photo of your finished piece.
Test PDFs stay private until the pattern is released. Testing is open to everyone, whatever your skill level; just tell me honestly what you're comfortable with.
