Kings I by Gorham

It is said that the devil is in the details. And often those details are very subtle. In preparing to post on Kings I by Gorham, I had to revisit earlier posts on  Kings II by Gorham  and Kings III by Gorham/Caldwell . In fact the subtlety can get down right confusing. Let's review. 

Kings II by Gorham (1885)

 

Kings III by Gorham (1885)



And, then the pattern I am posting on today: Kings I by Gorham (1875)




In looking at Kings I you see that it is the oldest and by far the simplest of the three. Of all the patterns I have seen, I do not recall seeing three patterns like this that have such similar, yet small changes.
