Happy Valentines Day and exquisite squares for The Beautiful Blogger Blanket from Darja!

Happy Valentines Day!  

I can't be with my hubby today.....

'The Confirmation', by Edwin Muir (1887 - 1959)

Yes, yours my love, is the right human face,

I in my mind had waited for this long.

Seeing the false and searching the true,

Then I found you as a traveller finds a place

Of welcome amid the wrong

Valleys and rocks and twisting roads.

But you, what shall I call you?

A fountain in a waste.

A well of water in a country dry.

Or anything that's honest and good, an eye

That makes the whole world bright.

Your open heart simple with giving, give the primal deed.

The first good world, the blossom, the blowing seed.

The hearth, the steadfast land, the wandering sea, 

Not beautiful or rare in every part,

But like yourself, as they were meant to be.

.................................

On with business.. Darja sent

 me 2 of the most exquisite pieces

 of crochet from North Yorkshire, UK.

I am not sure what pattern Darja

 used for her squares.. 

The first begins with a aqua centre and

 has circles of buttercup yellow and grassy

 green before the final round which

 is a pinky-purple... 

They are made so neatly! 

The second square has a yellow centre

 and circles of pinky-purple, red and yellow

 before the final purple round. 

Beautiful work Darja!
