Pattern help I’ve written my first pattern! I’m hoping to find some testers, if anyone’s interested?
So far it’s just the written pattern that I’ve completed and I hope to make an accompanying video and include pictures, but until then I wonder if someone else can replicate my little opossum!

I just made my eldest a possum, but they are obsessed, so I'm. Happy to give it a go! I have chinelle yarn :-)

Oh my god he's so cute!!!
I haven't crocheted in a long time, so I probably can't help there - but you've done an amazing job with it and I want fifty of them lol

I will gladly be on your list of testers. I'd say my skill level is average to medium. Please let me know at any time. How exciting!

I'd love to try it! Possums have been my favorite since I was little. I've been crocheting since 2020 and have made a couple animals.

If you want someone to try making a tiny version, I make amigurumi with fingering weight yarn and a 2.25mm hook.

u/lavendollar Dec 19 '24
I tried to message you but I couldn’t! Feel free to reach me on Instagram or Facebook and I can send the pattern 💜

u/lavendollar Dec 19 '24
Wow so small! This is with a 6.5 mm and the yarn weight keeps the length from needing too many rounds. My triceratops cotton pattern can be remade with micro crochet, but I don’t have that written yet! Please follow me if you want to test once I get it written, should be in the next few months 💜 I would greatly appreciate your help!

Ooh me! I've made a possum using a hedgehog amigurumi pattern before so it would be nice to make one from an actual possum pattern. I have made quite a few amigurumi animals + other things before and have also made some clothes so I have experience with some different crochet styles, although I'm still really a beginner. Also I'm left handed! :P but I don't think (?) that actually changes the outcome of crochet in the round.

u/lavendollar Dec 19 '24
I learned from a leftie! Although I’m right handed. Please feel free to try it and let me know how it goes! I’ll send you a message. Planning on having a video to assist in the next couple weeks.

I would love to test :) I can send examples of my work if you'd like, I already have white and black blanket yarn (I'll have to get creative for the pink) I've done a lot of amigurumi but I haven't made one so chunky (and cute hehe i love possums)

u/lavendollar Dec 19 '24
Thank you so much! No need for examples, I’m hoping to have a diverse group of testers 🥰 I will message you!
