Can't find a project I WANT to do..

Well, I can find a million that interest me..just not enough to do them. I started one earlier that I am not too sure will work out. I am making a sweater out of Peaches & Creme...against my better judgment. I just can't find any other yarn that jumps out at me that is cotton or acrylic. I hate that the colorways on acrylics are so short or just plain suck. Why can't they make things like Ty-Dy in acrylics? It's not that complicated...really, it isn't. Just make the colors run longer. Seems super easy to me...
