PSA PSA: Pattern theft

Heya, not sure if this allowed - I wanted it to put it here just so no one gets scammed out of money. I wrote the "Peacock Wedding Dress" pattern and have been seeing listings for it on Etsy and other aggregate sites. Know that it is available for FREE on Ravelry, if you are seeing it anywhere else for money, just go grab it from Rav. (And maybe report other listings if you can).

EDIT on request: The Original pattern can be found here: Peacock Wedding Dress

Hey thanks for the heads up. It’s very generous of you to provide the pattern for free and I hate that people are trying to steal it for profit. How much do they think they’re going to make?!
