A warm little window of autumn for your bookshelf - a cover of framed leaves in burgundy, green and golden threads, edged with shifting fall colors and finished in mocha brown. This pattern was worked in fine nylon cord for crisp stitch definition and a cozy fleece lining that keeps pages safe and soft. Make one as a gift or keep it for that favorite book you reread.
