I left my knitting at my grandpa's place today, so I am thinking of starting a new project, and I am completely blanking out on what I want to do next.

That's with 462 knitting projects enqueued in Ravelry! (I also have crochet projects queued, but putting those off until I actually know how to crochet. Hehehe)

If I can't decide on a project, I may just sit here and play with my yarn tonight. My life, so hard ;-)

Crochet a TARDIS!

I stole an idea from the Yarn Harlot for events like this. I went through and bagged up yarn + pattern (not just socks, but mostly fingerless gloves, socks, small shawls). Then the bags go into a drawer and when I just want to knit but can't make a decision, I grab a bag and knit that.

This lets me spend lovely hours going through patterns and matching yarn and researching other people's projects to determine what yarn to use and if the pattern will give me fits or be error-free. But then when I just want to knit I get to skip all that!

Ok, yeah, this is a good idea...

Oooh I love this idea. I meant to do it when you first posted about it in your journal, but it slipped my mind. I will do it my next batch of free time :-)

Obviously you have too many projects to choose from!

It does feel that way!

I've been getting rid of things like dishcloths I queued up to try a technique that was new to me (but which I have since run into and used in a different project), and also getting rid of a lot of stuffed items from when I blitzed through search and added everything that looked even vaguely cute (but that realistically I would never end up knitting).

I still have a lot, but it feels more manageable now *G*
