Afghan Block a Month Pictures

Oak leaf and acorns, applique trees, Swirl, reverse stockinette, star and entrelac cable - 12 inch squares for an afghan being constructed for my husband as a Christmas present. All the patterns for this are found in the Great American Afghan book published by Knitters.

Just finished another slip stitch pattern with hearts in maroon and ready to tackle the next one in line a 5 chart pattern with triangles and bobbles involving entrelac and some other new techniques. With each block I have expanded my repertoire of skills. It is amazing what can be done with just two stitches - knit and purl adding in increasing and decreasing. The patterns and designs seem to be limited only by my imagination... I seem to specialize in trite expressions. It's such fun!
