Would you really like to knit a sweater, but are too intimidated to try? Make a teddy bear sweater first! You are probably going to make a mistake or two, but if you have to rip it out and try something again and maybe even a third (or fourth) time, you are only ripping out a small amount of knitting, not a crying amount whole month of knitting.
There are quite a few patterns on Ravelry and other places online. You can try raglan sleeves, drop sleeves, top down or bottom up, sweaters in the round or in flat pieces...
I wanted to try a cable sweater and picked this fun one for Chocula Chip.
Tiny sweaters are also a great way to test your handspun yarn for suitability in a bigger project...but that's a tip for another day ;-).
