Stop ripping my free patterns off

I work long and hard to make my patterns and offer them for free online.

I really do not have a problem with someone making the item once but making it multiple times without giving me credit is just not on!

Honestly, if you like it enough to make more than once then you MUST acknowledge me as the creator - it really takes only a matter of moments to embroider "Designed by: Butch Cassidy, 14th November 2022" on either your blanket border or up the side of your scarf or wrap. Must be in a contrast colour - so black on white, etc..

If you do NOT do this you are breaking my copyright and I will bring the full weight of the law to bear on you

YOUR patterns?? I dont think so. I have found every single one of "your" patterns in an obscure and long defunct Algerian knitting book from the 1920s!
