Copycats

Two people in chat last night were arguing.  Evidently over a bracelet. The creator of the bracelet sold it to the other woman. The other woman used the bracelet as a tutorial to make a new bracelet, which she then listed for sale on Etsy. Since she'd said up front to the vendor that she was buying the bracelet in order to make one, she can't understand why the first artisan would be angry.  The chatroom jumped all over the new girl and she said she'd take the listing down. But then she was back today saying she didn't copy it all and was going to go full steam ahead and make more. I know that happens on Etsy all the time but most people aren't that blatant about it.
