    <content type="html">Thankfully, after about a week and a half of rest, my back felt much better, and I was able to continue work on some other projects.  Here's what I've been up to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, I had a custom order from my &lt;a href="http://inlerah.etsy.com"&gt;Etsy Shop&lt;/a&gt;, from someone who really liked my "Starlight" yarn, but wanted something in worsted weight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t1k36/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t1k36/s320x240" width="320" height="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I worked on 2 coordinating yarns from a beautiful batt of Mardi Gras inspired merino, 2 laceweight yarns (handspun merino and commercial mohair), and some metallic threads, and beads.&lt;br /&gt;The first is Carnivale:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t7b9k/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t7b9k/s320x240" width="320" height="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the second is Tryst&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t4hxh/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000t4hxh/s320x240" width="320" height="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an effort to utilize some of my other crafting skills, I also whipped up this little sketchbook/journal:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000srz4w/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000srz4w/s320x240" width="180" height="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And these hair sticks:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000stdrt/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lapin_arts/pic/000stdrt/s320x240" width="320" height="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, I really missed crafting when I was injured.  :)  In other news, I am in the process of moving into some studio workspace, which I will be sharing with geekpixie.  I am very excited about it, but will be glad when the moving part is done, and I can just go play in the studio.  yay!</content>
