How to Run a Pattern Tester Call for Your Pattern

[@debbieward-crochet]

Interesting. I don’t write patterns, but I love learning about anything crochet. Thank you for sharing.😊

[@MyCrochetBasket]

Thanks for sharing! I was literally wrapping up writing a pattern and wondering how I should do the tester call since it’s a more complex pattern.

@@MyCrochetBasket I’m glad you found it helpful! ☺️

Awesome ty for sharing

[@Thrivingplantz]

This is so easy to follow. Thank you. 😊Do you try to make sure that different people get to try the patterns, or is it normally the same people?

[@reigningcharmz]

@@Thrivingplantz yeah I do select different people, but I have a few people who did such a good job that if they applied again I’d probably chose them again for future ones☺️

[@Thrivingplantz]

@ ok. Thank you. I was just curious. 😊

[@AmberHelmuth91]

Just wondering, how do you locate craft shows, markets, etc.😊! How much is the average cost you pay to be vendor ? Thanks!😊

[@reigningcharmz]

@@AmberHelmuth91 I find them in Facebook groups for my area, and the cost depends on the size of the market and how established they are. You can pay anywhere from $25-$500 depending on those factors☺️

[@mirandliz]

hi Love your videos do you sell any of your pattern. I will like to buy the highlander cow if you do. :)

[@reigningcharmz]

@@mirandliz I do on my website! But the highland cow is by crochetgrove on Etsy ☺️

My pattern tests always flop no matter what lmao, only 1 person applies and its the same person every time (A friend who's a legend lol,)

[@reigningcharmz]

@@Madebysg aw well the most important part is the picture everyone sees. Make sure it’s in focus, clear, good lighting to see all the parts, and no messy background (so taking the picture outside during the morning or dusk with grass as the background is one of the best ways to take the picture). Hashtags also help a ton so make sure you’re tagging with crochetpatterntest patterntest etc. Hopefully this helps!

Where do you post your calls? I’ll give you a follow!

[@TubaTanveer-d2f]

@@reigningcharmz im my case, photos are not an issue and i use hashtags for tester calls as well - i even post to fb groups besides instagram that are meant to post tester calls still the tester calls are a flop!!! its such a struggle @craftrove
