knitting for $$$

[Lindsey H]

Is it okay to sell "commissioned" items? For example, someone sees a felted bag you made and wants one. Is it okay to make one and sell it for the amount of the yarn + time? The pattern I have used states "for personal use only". What if you modify a pattern? Is that now your pattern? Several ladies at church want felted bags/totes now that they have seen mine and I want to do the right thing. Also, a good friend of mine owns a nice, high end gift shop and has offered to let me place some of my bags in her shop.
