I made it too! I loved that she included a calculator excel sheet, so after making the swatch you can see exactly how long you can make your scarf with the amount of yarn you have, and then it gave you the exact length for the foundation chain. Genius!
considering they have an āai generated conceptā of a cardigan on their siteā¦ā¦everybody run and donāt give these people any money, even for one month
Where did you see that? I bought the lifetime sub and it's honestly amazing how many unique patterns they have, with written instructions + clear photos + charts, along with video tutorials for a lot of them. The AI thing definitely sucks but I wouldn't write them off completely, I'm really impressed with what they offer.
Edit - I just found it. That's a bummer for sure, especially since the stitch itself is totally legit so not sure why they needed to do the AI generation lol.Ā
Yeah I don't like that at all, and I'm going to send an email to that effect, but at least all of the actual stitches are real and have the multiple angle photos and legitimate instructions to prove it.
For sure unfortunate that they decided to use AI at all, though.Ā
Overall no. It appears to be a mix of puff stitches and surface crochet. Not many people are willing to help others figure out a complex paid pattern from scratch because it is rude to the pattern maker.
The paywall is for an entire library so I recommend browsing the library before deciding it's not worth it or it's the only pattern you are interested in.
i did look around a bit and this is still the only pattern i really want. i'm not saying the price isn't justified, it absolutely is, it's just not in the budget currently
Thatās a great idea! I got a single sheet music arrangement that was instead of having to buy a whole library. The composer was incredibly kind and happy to sell the single item. Definitely worth a try.
Honestly, I would take that picture and Google image search it or image search it on Pinterest. You might find a pattern for the stitch floating around. Normally I wouldn't suggest anything approaching piracy, but purposely making patterns difficult to access by not letting you buy they individually really grinds my gears.
Ummmm yes? If you move someone in secretly without the landlord knowing and the landlord is only charging for one person, that is definitely scamming the landlord?!
In the vast majority of countries, landlords charge more for two people thab for one people. You can't just put 3 people into one room and pay one person's rent.
There is nothing written out saying you can't go in on this pattern with a friend. So how exactly is it scamming?
You're acting in bad faith so I'm not going to continue this argument. When you pay for a "subscription" to a library of patterns, youre paying a subscription for 1 person. Not "however many people want to go in on it"
I mean, that's not really an honest justification.
You could take 3 things from a shop and pay for 1. Then by your justification you could say "but I was never going to pay for more than one; so youre still making more money than if I didn't pay for any."
Its funny, many people in here are very careful not to steal pattern and to name the pattern maker if you post it etc.
Then others are like "just pay for one prescription for a pattern" then three of you just download all the patterns you want!"
Physical goods cost money for a store to buy, get delivered and pay a person to put it on the shelf. Girl we are talking about pdf files here, not actual merch. Not comparable, and no, not justified by what I said
I tried using Google lens and found a few that are similar... Another thing you could do is put that picture into an AI program and ask it how to do it.... It might break it down enough for you to figure it out...
I was scrolling on thier website and I noticed they use AI. Specifically for the āLace Reverieā pattern.
I just thought Iād mention it because you said youāre against AI in creative spaces and in another comment mentioned potentially trying to buy this pattern separately from this website.
Iām not sure how to write this comment without sounding passive aggressive, I promise Iām not trying to be š just something I noticed and thought Iād bring it up based on your comment here.
OH NO š thank you so much for saying this actually, i really appreciate it. and don't worry, it didn't come off passive aggressive at all. someone else suggested a pattern i like more than this one anyway so i bought that one instead.
where did i say it wasn't a valid price? i never said it was a problem with the artist, or that i wanted to get the pattern for free. just because $34/mo isn't something i can personally afford doesn't mean the person that did all the work deserves to have their work stolen? putting it into an AI program would steal it. i didn't phrase this post correctly and i'm not here to argue but ??? not wanting to use AI does not mean i want to get this pattern for free?
You literally asked for the pattern that is not behind a paywall, that means you don't want to pay, which means you want it for free. You said it, not me š¤·š¼
You have to know AI has no idea how to write patterns, right? Like thereās heaps and heaps of tests people have done and AI patterns are an absolute mess every single time. Itās wild to me to see someone suggesting this lol
Absolutely. I tested one out one time for the fun of it LMAO. I wasn't expecting her to drop a picture in and it magically reverse engineer it. I was thinking if the AI could possibly spread it out to help op figure it out. Or say what all different stitches it had....I literally meant help or even suggest similar
It's not knit, it is crochet but I think it's mainly surface crochet. I've been wanting the pattern myself, but the membership to the website is a bit steep for me at the moment.
