I agree with you, Faye.  Giving out the pattern is a violation of 
copyright and therefore illegal.  It is also denying the school its 
income.

Having to write or call a foreign country is very inconvenient, but 
that's not really an excuse to be a pirate.  In my opinion, the best 
answer would be to convince some of the lace suppliers to buy the 
patterns from the school and make them available to their customers.  
That would make the patterns more expensive, because the suppliers 
would have to add their price markup, but it would be the legal and 
moral way to get the patterns to more people.
