 Valhalla's fiber craft patterns
 ===============================
 
+This is a collection of patterns for fiber crafts, mostly knitting and
+crochet, designed or adapted by Elena “of Valhalla”.
+
+Most patterns in this collection are actually recipes, to be adapted to
+the yarn and gauge of your choice; suggestions are given for the
+intended range of yarns, and for the yarns I've actually used while
+developing the patterns (and in further makes).
+
+The patterns are organized by part of the body and then alphabetically,
+with no distinction of technique (knitting, crochet, etc.).
