This design earned first place in the accessories category of the 2014 CGOA Design Competition.

Wrap yourself in the season and keep the chill off this fall! Each leaf is made individually and then joined with the border round using the join~as~you~go single crochet method. Add some beads down the veins of the leaves to bring some sparkle to your evenings. There are 2 options for the leaves, one is a single color leaf, and one is a 2 color leaf. They are made the same way, just with a color change at the vain. There is also a chart for the leaf pattern, and many full color photos!
