Chalk Cottage Knitting is back

I'm quite interested in the vintage look of the colours in these wallflowers
Chalk Cottage Knitting is back.  I installed Google Chrome and so far so good.  It took me a while to pluck up the nerve to do it.  Thank you to everyone for your lovely comments on loss of knitting mojo I mentioned in my previous post.  Not quite got it back, I'm afraid and may try a little crochet.

We're having some weather here today and the wallflowers which had blossomed out a lot more since this picture are taking a terrible beating. The tulips are battered as well.  Oddly, the yellow ones seem to be standing up well, but the pink and red are all gone.

Blackthorn 
It's the end of what's known as Blackthorn Winter and the tulips get knocked about every year.  March can be deceptively kind, the blackthorn flowers come out and in comes April with lots of rain (which we really needed). Soon it will be May, the hawthorn will be out in full and everything will calm down.

I was so glad to see your post- technology can be so troublesome sometimes- glad you were able to sort things out.
