Cross post I'm NOT flattered
Hi everyone,
I'm cross posting this here, since my patterns can be machine knit. I've been so busy with regular work and a scarf commission, it's been a while since I checked my alternate e-mail account, the one connected to my Star Wars Crochet and Knit Charts/Graphs page. I found in there a request from someone to "enter their intarsia book contest". The "winners" give their intarsia knitting charts to these people FOR FREE , which will then be SOLD by these people in book form, i.e., they want to make money from my work and the work of others. The fine print states that I would also be giving them the copyright on any charts submitted for the term of the copyright, which I believe is now 70 years. HUH? I give my Star Wars craft charts away for free on the net. They were a labor of love, since I love Star Wars. They are free, because they are something I would have dearly loved to have available to me to use years ago and could not have afforded to pay for, and I know there are people like I used to be who can use them but maybe not afford to pay to have access. I told them that I have no intention of giving up my copyright on any of my charts so they can charge people for them! So if anyone sees any of my charts being sold, PLEASE let me know. I'd hate to think they were being duped by people stealing my work for a profit when they have been available free for several years and will continue to be free.

I went to the graphs on your page and see that you use a program for either knit or crochet. Which software program is that? Two of our grandsons are gaga over Star Wars and I am planning a blanket for the youngest for his birthday in January. He'll be 6. :-) I have an electronic knitting machine (KnitKing Compuknit III) and usually use the DAK (Design-A-Knit) software program. Marge in Reno www.mkdesigner.etsy.com |
