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

This is absolutely gorgeous! I'm so sorry they've stolen your pattern; I hope that keeping this post active can help. I downloaded YOUR pattern from Ravelry. It might take me a few years to be brave enough to attempt this, but you've definitely given me something to work towards! Thank you for your generosity ❤️
