Interesting that she's not requiring the students to buy the magazine. This is likely a copyright infringement issue and would not have been allowed in my shop's classes.
Or failing that, she should have written permission to rewrite the pattern on her own and use it in a class. Or ask for a written pattern that the student will have to pay for. The pattern was designed by "someone" and they deserve by ethics and by law to earn from the reproduction of that pattern.
These things really "get to me" as I've had my own infringement issues and had to go after a teacher. It hurts.
If she will not allow you to see the pattern before the class is paid for and attended, perhaps she should be alerted to what she appears to be doing.
