What to knit, oh, what to knit?

January floundering going on.

Now that all the Xmas knitting is complete and has been gifted I've not got any bright ideas of what to start next. Clearly August startitis doesn't carry over to January, where it would make so much more sense.

I could of course dig into the unfinished objects (UFO) pile and will likely get there eventually.  When I couldn't make up my mind this week what sweater I wanted to knit next I threw up my hands and dumped the inspirational knitting books back into a pile and started another pair of socks. Second pair of the year already.

There were so many sparkling ideas in late August and I should have written of them because now I can't remember what I was so excited about. I had to push ideas out of the way to make room for Xmas knitting so now they've completely decamped. Damn.

Before I know it there will be paid work to do and my wee window of knitting time will close to leave only the smallest amount of time to work on fibre projects.  Need those nifty sweater ideas back, pronto.

This calls for some hardcore Ravelry pattern search time. Wish me luck, I could be lost there for days....
