+.. Valhalla's crafting patterns documentation master file, created by
+   sphinx-quickstart on Wed Jun 14 09:23:05 2023.
+   You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
+   contain the root `toctree` directive.
+
+Valhalla's craft patterns
+=========================
+
+This is a collection of crafting patterns and tutorials designed or
+adapted by Elena “of Valhalla”.
+
+The latest version of this document is published on
+https://craft-patterns.trueelena.org/; a `pdf version
+<https://craft-patterns.trueelena.org/Valhallascraftpatterns.pdf>`_
+and an `epub version                                           
+<https://craft-patterns.trueelena.org/Valhallascraftpatterns.epub>`_
+are also available; note however that this document is pretty image
+heavy, and may not load correctly in many ebook readers.
+
+The PDF and epub versions also don't include any download file which can
+be downloaded from the individual pages of this webiste, or as the `full
+website source zip archive
+<https://craft-patterns.trueelena.org/Valhallascraftpatterns.zip>`_ or
+`website source tarball
+<https://craft-patterns.trueelena.org/Valhallascraftpatterns.tar.xz>`_.
+
+There are also companion websites for `sewing patterns
+<https://sewing-patterns.trueelena.org/>`_ and `fiber craft patterns
+<https://fiber-patterns.trueelena.org/>`_.
+
+This document is generated with Sphinx_, and its sources are published
+on https://git.trueelena.org/crafts/craft_patterns/.

+
+Generating an rss of new pages with Sphinx doesn't seem to be (easily)
+possible, but when new patterns are added or existing patterns receive
+significant changes they are usually announced on `my blog`_, which of
+course has an rss.
