And then it hit me. If I choose simpler projects, I'll have time to make two new things to wear in my last semester of college/first months of Real Life. And so I hereby announce Claudia's Prelimiary Summer Picks:
(1) The Union Square Market Pullover. Eunny Jang, my knitting hero, has one in her archives with the clever and sleekifying modification of narrowing the bell sleeve, which I really like. And that neckline is just too cool. Maybe in a deep purple or chocolatey brown...
(2) Simply Marilyn. (I am so about Interweave right now.) I"m picturing it in Lamb's Pride Bulky in Charcoal Heather, because an oversized dark-grey sweater would be eminantly wearable. And this way I would still get my cabling fix. And then of course there are socks to make, Anemois to fair-isle, projects to plan, dreams to dream.
Questions? Ideas? Comments?

I really like both sweates- the bell sleeve is pretty- and you could make it fit really well- it would transition to a work sweater - with a tweed pencil or pleated skirt-
And I love the bulky sweater - it looks cozy-we love Lambs Pride!!!

Good choices. Both of them are Super-You, and the Union Square one merans you get to pick buttons! I think you will be happier with multi-projrcys, like your writing. And hey - there's always socks!
