The lace magazine has not bought the pattern. I think Bev is the copyright holder in this case and she feels she would like to share it with as many people as possible. So, is the "copyright being violated", or is the pattern being "used with permission" when someone copies it. Does the publication which has not bought the pattern have a property interest in it that it can protect by limiting use when it is Bev's desire to share the pattern as widely as possible?
