Things Men Have Made

Things men have made with wakened hands, and put soft life into

are awake through years with transferred touch, and go on glowing

for long years.

And for this reason, some old things are lovely

warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them.

1 month ago by saraphir This is the DK weight version of my #mediumflowerwheelcirclesquare - it’s in #dropsbelle and I really look forward to getting the squares in this yarn together as a summer blanket! The pattern is free on my blog in US and UK terms - link in profile or www.saraphir.com
1 month ago by saraphir Here’s the Scheepjes Catona version of my #mediumflowerwheelcirclesquare .... I do love these colours and think I might end up with more than one cushion!! They’ll go well with the light great cover on my sofa! The pattern is free on my blog in both UK and US terms. Link in profile.

2 weeks ago by saraphir I’ve only really had time to crochet on the bus recently, but the next stage of my #flowerwheelmandalaseries is on the hook... this is another version of the #dropsnepal colourway, which I very much hope will be warming me as part of a blanket this winter! The pattern is free on my blog, link in profile.
1 week ago by saraphir At the moment there is just so little time to crochet... I am itching just to sit down and forget about everything else but then there’s meetings, emails to write, funding applications to write, performances to plan etc etc.... the list is long. And all the while my next square is lying lonely on the sofa untouched for over a week. but I did have a lovely meeting in the Lake District this weekend and because I couldn’t sleep I got up at 5.30 and went for a long walk and sat with my feet in the stream and enjoyed
