Happy Weekend, My Dear Readers, Makers, and Pals! I’ll be opening the Etsy store again soon. It’s been on vacation. Think cozy autumn, back to school, and fun. Here’s a preview. What are you working on? Small Pink Scarf (Copyright 2022, Tiffani Velez)
I started a version of The Mourning Cloak Butterfly Shawl back in 2015. You can find a link to my earlier version, and the story that goes with it, if you just google my name and “Mourning Cloak” or by going here, to my author site.

It’s been quite a four years in America, hasn’t it, friends? How did you cope? I knitted, crocheted, wrote, published, taught, took a lot of walks with my dog, took naps with…
My Dear Readers, my first book of patterns will be out in the fall! Info to come soon.
Read books are far less valuable than unread ones.
