Can I Sell?

"The pattern says I can't sell what I make. Can I sell?"

If in the US, the short answer is yes. The Supreme Court ruled on this a few years ago. The author can say anything they want, they have no actual right to say you can't sell what you make from their patterns. You CAN sell what you make. You can NOT sell the pattern. The pattern is copyrighted to the author. Also, you can't just put your name on the pattern and say it's yours. This will be fund out and there will be legal repercussions.

It's good form to credit the author of the pattern when selling your makes. Something like "Handmade by (your name), pattern by (author's name)."

Do you sell at fairs? Online? Etsy?
