Too much of a muchness

The Rowan Cotton Tape is too expensive (11 skeins needed for a 3/4 sleeve shortish pullover at $10 a skein - yikes), too heavy (it's in the 80s here already), and too bright (really bright pastels - I like bright but couple with the expensive and the heavy...).

If I were really smart, I'd start on the socks I want to knit for Dad for his birthday (3 weeks away), or finish the Lollipop cardigan for my daughter (only the buttonbands left) or knit the His scarf for the British couple who will be visiting us at the end of April.

Somehow, the combination of spring and sickness has made me a bit selfish. We'll see what happens.
