We're crying uncle here. Rob is still seriously functionally restricted by his back injury, I've come down with some sort of a thingy consisting of exhaustion and a splitting headache, and we decided conceded that it might be best to just postpone the yarn update to next week.
Thankfully, I'm still able to do quiet things like knitting and computer work.... and took the opportunity to give the blog a long overdue update and decluttering. What do you think?
The surviving tulips are finally blooming:
I feel a red phase coming on. You've been warned.
This is even better, though - just look at the stunning display of three part symmetry:
It is tempting to say it expands to six parts, but when you really look closely, it's three all the way.
Love the new look - very fresh and clean - "alpine" really!

I heartily approve of both red and radial symmetry. And the less-cluttered blog look is nice.

The red tulip is beautiful. Very sorry to hear both of you are having problems. Pray things get back to normal soon.

Gorgeous! A lot of our tulips got pounded into the ground with two rounds of snow.

Hope you all feel better soon. That down on shot of the tulip is marvelous. With your permission it may just turn into some charted lace.
