Decisions, decisions
I see the wisdom in buying yarn for only one project at a time. Oh, had I only known that before!

I have a room full of yarn. It is sort of sad, all of that yarn sitting there waiting for me to get my butt in gear. Tonight I would two balls of yarn that I purchased in April, and I still only sort of know what I'll do with it, and have no idea when those possibles something will be done.

I need a plan, and your input is welcome. I need to decide what to finish first, and I need to have some project(s) waiting for me in the future to keep me on task.

Sweaters to be completed:
- Crichton cardigan (I am almost to the armhole steeks, and I would definitely like to have this finished by the end of the knit-along.)
- This crazy sweater (sleeves are done and the outside ruffle is FINALLY done, so just the center is left to knit)
- Lucky Clover cardigan (one sleeve to be done, plus the tie and edging bands)
- Forecast (needs button bands and sleeves)
- Rhapsody in Tweed (sleeves and 1/2 of the back done, but I'm pretty sure this will be too small - it's for Matthew)

Socks/other to be completed:
- Conwy sock (1 to go)
- Crazy Chicago sock (1 to go, but it is a LONG one)
- Wyvern socks (1 1/2 to go, and I bet I will run out of yarn; yikes!)
- Lace knee highs, in that same color! (1 to go)
- Cabled sock out of Bearfoot yarn that I did on a whim using my own brain and will have to spend hours figuring out what the heck I did with it in the first place, but it is rather awesome and could very well be published somewhere or other even if it's just this site (1 to go)
- Flirty Ruffles shawl (I am, oh, 5% done)

Sweaters on tap:
- Gerbera
- Simple knitted bodice sweater
- Some sort of fair isle (probably a cardigan) using Lamb's Pride Worsted in chocolate brown, pink, and green
- This Vogue cabled cardigan
- I'm sure I'm forgetting something here (like that one from Tudor Roses that I'd like to make for Matthew), but we'll leave it at that.

Other things on tap:
- Potamu-whatever
- Snicket
- Handspun socks for Matthew (yes, I still need to make these; I am a bad wife)
- Pooling Colors scarf
- A million other things I've forgotten by now

So, tell me, what would you like to see me make? I sure as heck can't decide.
