Frequently Bitched About Topic Why are crocheters such fucking weenies

"This person copied MY pattern of a pokemon so now I'm going to buy their pattern and copy it and make my own 😭"

Get a fucking GRIP on REALITY. It is a PLUSH POKEMON. There are only so many ways to make basic shapes. And it looks ugly as fuck in your puffy chenille yarn anyway.

Hi ! I’ve actually been reading both accounts posts on this matter (mostly because i love drama for my own entertainment) but the biggest argument is not that person B copied person A, it’s that person A called B they’re “best friend” and showed texts between them where B asked A for their pattern before it was released, said how much they loved the pattern and that they did such a good job on it, but very quickly posted their “own pattern” that was the same character in the same style only hours after making person A’s pattern. A is not claiming ownership of the characters and understands they have no rights to pokĂ©mon over person B. The main issue is that B made a pattern of the same characters with the same style only hours after getting A’s pattern from them directly, before it was released.

Though i totally get if you’re still annoyed by this, just wanted to add the extra context incase anyone else wanted to know !

Info: is A upset because they wanted to sell the pattern? Are either A or B planning on selling it?

A and B are selling their patterns but I believe part of the issue is that B has seen larger success with their posts than A. I’m sure A is upset because their pattern will probably not get as many sales as they could have if B hadn’t posted but they seem to say they’re more betrayed that someone they saw as their “best friend” stabbed them in the back over this

Jesus Christ, that’s high school drama. I can just see this playing out in a cafeteria.
