Bird Of 4 Stitches

 Heriloom Afghan blocks are popping up all along the knitting table now.   What once was just an idea has blossomed into some of the prettiest knitting ever.  In past posts the patterns for the blocks January - June have been posted and everyone is working on a different color theme.  This first block I believe in July and done in cream but it appears more white in this image.  Vickie, AKA Rilpey the leader and teacher has done this block.
 I believe this block is Elm Leaves or seeds and Candy AKA Fifth Avenue knitter is working in white.
 I think Sara is working cables now with this image, its hard to keep track now - the color is a really rich hare brown.
 Again I believe this is Sara's block, which is January block all finished now.  Lovely work.
 Peggy is trying to beat a deadline for finishing up her afghan, I think this might be July pattern , and it really has so much movement and texture in it that its makes me just want to reach out and touch it, just beautiful, work by Emergency Peggy!
 Postal Peggy has her January block completed too, and  works for the post office but she never goes postal with her yarn when Ripley is there to show the way.  This is the most unusual color and we all are fascinated with it as its so much prettier knitted up than in the skein!   Nice job.
Candy brought some of the coolest dish cloths she knitted in a really cool cotton yarn.  I got gifted one of these and just love it.  We all have the pattern now to make our own.  As a joke the pattern is named Bird Of 4 Stitches.   This is an inside joke and unless you are an Odd Ball you will never know the "real story"!


Cheers!
