Doctor Who and Knitting

[iko]

Well, it seems like the word is spreading about Mazzmatazz's order from the BBC to pull all of her Doctor Who-related patternsI know that I've written to both the Brand Protection Team (at BBC Worldwide Ltd.) and the Doctor Who Branding group (which was an address that was given to me when I submitted email feedback to the BBC). I keep thinking

Awww, that's a shame. I loved those little knitted Adipose.

I was sorting my del.icio.us bookmarks yesterday, clicked on the Mazzmatazz URL I'd saved, and saw what the BBC had done. This is beyond stupid, and really, doesn't the crack BBC legal team have anything better to do with their time?

At least I saved a copy of the pattern the first time I saw it posted.

I know what you mean, it seems like they're punishing Mazzmatazz for others profiting from the pattern to me.

I don't knit or do anything remotely crafty, but this? This isn't just wrong. It's so STUPID! I suppose next thing you know they'll be breaking down your door when you bake your 6-year-old a Dalek birthday cake.

...I want one of those for my husband.

I wish I could still get my hands on that pattern. I had plans to knit one for my boyfriend. Is it still up on Ravelry?

Also: It's all that Ebay jerk's fault. Stupid BBC, stupid Ebay... wonderful knitters!
