Ok I bought these 4 colors. I want to use them all in a afghan. but i'm stumped on a pattern to make with them,

 

anyone have any patterns perfect for 4 colors? I thought at first a big granny afghan.. but I realy dont want to do one, and I don't feel up to another Ripple, i'd like a realy nice afghan out of them as they are realy neat colors.

 

Here they are below

any idea's?

 

The colors are (varagated) is "fall"

the ligter brown is "warm brown"

Darker brown is "coffee"

orange is "carrot"

 

UPDATE: I think i found what i want tomake.. http://crochetme.com/media/p/89937.aspx

Here are some ideas that I think would look nice with your colors:

 

Amish Basket Quilt -- http://happyyellowhouse.com/htm/basket.html

Autumn Glow Afghan -- http://www.freevintagecrochet.com/afghans/autumn-glow-afghan-pattern.html

Autumn Log Cabin -- http://www.coatsandclark.com/Crafts/Crochet/Projects/AfghansThrows/WR1846+Autumn+Log+Cabin+Throw.htm (This one actually has 6 colors but maybe you could adjust).

Corner to Corner Afghan -- http://web.************/web/20031205063846/http://www.thesmartyarns.com/patterns/Nov00/cornertocorner.html (This is only 3 colors but it is a nice one to use a vareigated & two solids)

Fall Hexagon Afghan http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/80441AD.html (Has 5 colors but you could easily make it just 4)

Flamenco Fling Afghan -- http://redheart.com/Libraries/ProductDocuments/773/WR1853.pdf (This would look nice in your fall colors too)

How about a "Kitties in a Row" afghan?

Here are the directions for a baby-sized afghan....just increase it to make it larger.

Funny you should say that, I was thinkin that.. but was not sure its the rite choice.

 

I have a few skanes left of the Teal and linen color from my Riipple and im praticing the Kitty in a row pattern, I think my gauge is to loose as i realy don't see the kitty's,

 

I'm thinking That pattern is better suited for bright vibrant colors., but still I may still do it with these....

I think that pattern is perfect with the colors you have. Can't wait to see it when you make it.
