knitted wraps + trims

 Guess what is  F I N I S H E D ....   Portfolio wrap.  I bought the yarn in Philadelphia - it is called Loop Studio Yarn.   Per web site:  "Studio is a bouncy 3-ply yarn made from 100% American merino wool that's spun and dyed right here in Pennsylvania!".


 In addition to the blue yarn, I purchased a couple more colors - Easel and Glaze.   Perhaps I will use the same pattern in those colors.

The new project I started in October is called Hitchhiker.   
 I am using Color Celedon  -- Madelinetosh  tosh merino light.   .    


I found some very nice vintage pattern books - and started a charming leaf trim:  
  
The yarn is from Bloomington, Indiana - called Panda, from Crystal Palace.

I added a few more inches on the trim from Piecework magazine, too.
