Inspired by the beverage horchata, this pattern is the first in a series of meditations on my Mexican-American and Western North American heritage.

All of the proceeds from sales of the pattern will be donated to help people who are seeking life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness at the U.S.-Mexico border. The charities that will receive the donations are:

• Al Otro Lado
• Casa Del Migrante en Tijuana
• The Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES)

PLEASE NOTE: I would much prefer for you to make a direct donation, in any amount, to one of these organizations! DM me on Instagram or Ravelry with a donation receipt and I will email the pattern pdf to you.
