Feeling the Need to Rant!

What is it with some people? (rhetorical question)
I got a message from a knitter who wants me to rewrite one of my free designs to her specifications. Like I'm just sitting around waiting for the chance to change my patterns at her whim. This is the first time I will not be replying to a comment on my patterns. I'm afraid if I did reply it would be something like this: Thank you so much for your comment. I'm so glad you ALMOST like my pattern. Certainly I could write out a new FREE pattern to your specifications but I won't. If you don't like it the way it is, YOU change it.

What a nerve. I once did a lot of adjusting on a pattern - different size yarn, different size garment - and it was mind-numbing, but I was really motivated to do it. I suppose I learned some things, but mostly I learned that next time I would keep looking until I found a pattern that was what I needed in the first place, even if I had to buy it.

I am not a knitter but it sounds like the person had a lot of nerve.
