Whoa, that's a super cute sweater, and an impressive amount to knit in 72 hours! I was kicking myself for waiting to knit my bro-in-law's knit alien things until yesterday (tentacles take longer than you think, I've found), but they took nowhere near the knitting required for even a baby sweater!
In other knitting news, I would TOTALLY test knit mittens for you! I haven't done much formal test knitting--I knit some fingerless mitts for a friend after she wrote up a pattern, but she never really released them, so... But, you know, I can follow the directions and tell you if they don't make sense or if you forgot to write a step down (and totally squee about how awesome they are) etc. If you'd like! But I honestly don't think there has to be a formal process, even to release a pattern for profit.
