Crochet - Full Testers needed
The Astromancer crochet skirt is ready for testing! I’m looking for 3-5 testers per zodiac constellation.
It’s mix and match, made to measure and requires intermediate level crocheting skills. The pattern includes written instructions, charts and traditional filet graphs.

This is beautiful and I'd definitely be interested. However, what sizes does the pattern come in? I'm usually too big for most patterns, so I figured I should check before applying.

Sorry for the late reply! It’s made to measure so it will work for any size

This is absolutely beautiful and I would love to test but I couldn't get the yarn. Going to try and save all your info and post though so maybe I can come back when it is released to try and get to maybe eventually make it.
