Happy Birthday.. with yarn!

Today's my 32nd birthday. Yesterday, my husband took me out to dinner at this excellent "mom and pop type" pizza restaurant. Homemade crust on the pizzas and homemade mozerella sticks. HAND ROLLED so good. After that, we went to this little yarn store. I got two hanks of cascade heathers yarn.
http://www.cascadeyarns.com/cascade-220.asp the color I got is 9453 on that page. I'm going to make a hat and maybe mittens if I can.

I messed up my 2-at-a-time socks by being cocky. I said "hey, I don't want to finish these practice socks. I think I've got the concept". I frogged the practice ones and started up with my Patons sock yarn. In about oh.. 5 minutes it was frogged again and back in my knitting basket and I haven't attempted the 2-at-atime since. It's just so hard to keep two balls of yarn straight especially when it's small weight sock yarn and both balls are the same color argh.
