Hi, it was brought to my attention today that someone here was posting my “Star Baby” pattern. I just want to let you know that it is already published for FREE on the Sweet Softies YouTube Channel.
It’s a pattern that has already been thoroughly tested by a team of testers on Instagram. Please do not steal patterns from original designers and call it your own creation!
Isn’t this Star Baby the perfect little star to wish upon? It’s a free pattern on the Sweet Softies YouTube channel!
so sorry someone stole it! i love your patterns <33
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words. <3
I saw that post! So egregious to steal your work. I hope the post gets taken down!
Thank you so much! I hope so too. I’ve seen so many cases of pattern theft in the crochet community…it needs to stop!
Wow 
I immediately recognized it-it was from you! You’re a phenomenal designer, and I am so sorry it was stolen
Thank you! <3
Thank you for recognizing my work! I really appreciate your kind and supportive words too. <3 Thanks friend!!
If you see a pattern here on Ribblr that has been stolen, please flag the post and report it to Ribblr for action. 
Will do! I am just starting to learn how to use Ribblr today because a couple of my followers messaged/emailed me to alert me about this post. I’m not very tech savvy but I’m slowly figuring things out on this platform. Thanks for the tip!
You’re very welcome.
I’m so sorry the first experience you’ve had here has been a negative one.
Please know this community is very much against pattern theft and encourages all ‘designers’ to be original when creating a pattern.
Ribblr responds promptly to all claims of pattern theft and takes appropriate action.
We’d love for you to add your patterns to Ribblr.
You can add either a written e-pattern or a v-pattern (video pattern).

Thank you so much! I appreciate the reassurance about Ribblr’s stance on pattern theft. I plan to begin adding my patterns to Ribblr! Thank you again <3
Oh no! Yes I saw this post
That sucks I love all your patterns

Omg I’m so sorry that someone is stealing your work! It’s really mean when you work hard, design your own patterns, just fro someone to copy paste them! I hope the situation becomes better soon!

Omg I’m so so sorry that someone is stealing your work!
