Happy birthday, mom!

It's my mom's birthday today — a mighty 43.

I've been spending my day thus far working on the Kittyville hat, published in Stitch n' Bitch and cataloging my yarn stash, which I started doing after running out of yarn after finishing the base of the hat and trying to find some more. I was convinced that I had some, so I started going through bags and bins of yarn, only to discover that I only had short bits from a previous botched intarsia project. Then, of course, my bed was covered with yarn, WiPs, and plastic bins. I had been meaning to do it eventually. Mostly I'm just copying the yarn label onto an index card, writing what I made with the yarn, and punching a hole in it to run a few inches of the yarn through. I don't really want to do all that acrylic or Wool-Ease, though. Or that damn boa stuff. What a mess.

I watched Lilo and Stitch yesterday and thought that her doll would be a cute project. You know — that green one? Yeah.

I'm off.
