Ugh. The plagiarism machine has no place in art.

I've had comments before, but I ventured onto pinterest this week to find that my granny glasses pattern was being accused of being ai generated. Which is RICH on that platform, considering it's been overrun with ai images 🤦‍♀️ Even worse, this is a totally free pattern, and it would be easy to see that it, well, actually makes sense, as opposed to ai slop.

I guess I'm flattered that some of my pics look "polished", but overall I'm just plain grossed out. How terrible is it that it's become so difficult to determine the difference between an actual hand crafted item and a picture of what a machine thinks a handcrafted item should look like?

Plugging a prompt into a machine is not artistry. Art is creation, fueled by emotion, and built with meaningful, beautiful human imperfection.

I'm so tired of this having to be a debate.

I thought long and hard about it, and it just wouldn't feel right to rush and release this pattern now. So what's a girl to do? Add an extra round of testing to make sure it's up to my standards, and plan ahead to release it next year!

The tester application is live now on Ribblr. I have very minimal requirements, but I prefer if you do have a similarly sized goose already (24")!

Teaters will obviously get free access to this pattern, but they will also receive a pattern of their choice after successful test completion! Photos and video are not required, but appreciated 🤎 There's not even any rush to finish before halloween!

Porch Goose Pumpkin update!

The crochet pattern is *so* close to being ready to publish, but with it being so close to Halloween already, should I hold off on releasing it until next year?

Lady Featherington is officiallly the silliest goose (by no authority whatsoever 😂)

Is your goose dressed for Halloween?

I'm so grateful to my wonderful testers for not just doing an absolutely thorough job of testing, but also for jumping right into action and meeting a quick deadline! Thanks to their hard work, I was able to publish before October and offer this pattern as a gem pattern all month long on Ribblr 💜

You can find my Retro Halloween Cat crochet pattern exclusively on Ribblr - find it where the links live!

I just realized it's been a hot minute since I posted a flatlay! Today's WIP is nearly a FO, but alas, I must take a break to make dinner 😭

On my hook is what will be my next Porch Goose costume pattern! I really love how it's working up and hope you other porch goose aficionados do too 🧡

Now off to cook, because the sooner we eat, the sooner I'm back to crocheting!
