Anybody, Anybody? Bueller, Bueller?

And I disappeared again! Oops. It wasn't as long this time, though. I am sure I was not missed that much since I haven't been coming here very often. Time for this to change.

Lots of things have been happening since I last posted. I have made/started tons of knitting projects and put them on Ravelry and Flickr. Check me out on Ravelry as SamanthaNJ.

I have started an Etsy shop: http://yarnspirations.etsy.com/
This name came to me a couple of years ago when I decided that I wanted to spend a lot of time on fiber crafts including knitting, spinning, dyeing, sewing, felting . . . you get the picture. And since my projects are usually inspired by something I see around me, something I hear, etc, I wanted that to translate in the shop name. I started filling it up about two weeks ago. Right now there is mostly soaps and lip balms there from my soap company, Luvable Lights, but you will see fiber begin to take over as I get more items finished.

I also bought a drum carder! I have been eyeing one of these for the LONGEST time. Part of it was my birthday present, and I paid for the rest. I have been able to play with a few color combinations, but I need to get more fiber. Here are three batts I made and put in my etsy shop:
