Pattern Buyer Beware! Applies To Free and Paid Patterns

 

 
 
Crocheted Cat
 
📢 Hey there, crochet buddies! 📢
As we're all diving into the wonderful world of crochet patterns online, I just wanted to give you a heads up on something super important. Lately, we've noticed a sneaky trend popping up – AI-generated images being used to advertise crochet patterns.
 
Now, these computer-generated pics might look pretty realistic at first glance, but they don't always match up with the real deal. Here are a few things to keep an eye out for:
 
🧶 Stitches that seem a bit too perfect or lack that cozy handmade feel
🧶 Textures that look super smooth, almost too perfect to be true
🧶 Lighting or shadows that seem just a tad too spot-on
🧶 Crocheted items posed in ways that seem a bit too... lifelike (think a crocheted cat sitting just like a real one!)
 
Sadly, some folks are using these fancy pics to trick buyers, and it's a bummer when what you get isn't what you expected.
 
To steer clear of any disappointment, make sure to read reviews and descriptions carefully before hitting that purchase button. And if you want to double-check, there's a handy AI Image Detector you can use, like this one AI Image Checker. https://wasitai.com/

I created the images here https://ideogram.ai/t/explore for free and used this prompt 
"A charming photo of a meticulously crafted crocheted cat sitting gracefully on an equally detailed crocheted mat. The cat has expressive, hand-stitched eyes and a cheerful smile, while the mat features an intricate pattern of colors and shapes. The yarn used for the cat and mat are of high quality, with a soft texture and vibrant colors. The overall atmosphere of the photo is warm and comforting, evoking a sense of love and care in craftsmanship., photo"
