I wombled into the craft room today and poked at (one of) the teetering mounds. Came out of it with a conundrum (what does one do when one has 31 squares and no idea where the rest of the yarn is) and two other incomplete crochet projects that I could be getting on with. So, one red and white lap blanket in quite thin yarn and one 'neapolitan icecream' blanket in heavy yarn (I had to find a different crochet hook!) coming up. I don't think either has quite enough yarn in the pile, but I'm hoping that there will be something else in the stash. Given that both are using up other people's remaining yarn, I don't know whether they are acrylic (most likely for most of the yarns) or wool (plausible for some of the colours) and therefore how to go about finding more. Must remember at some point when I'm not resting to go and flame test some of the tag ends.
I also sorted a mixed pile into 'revisit' and 'crochet squares'. Not all the crochet squares are complete, but at least they are in a box now, and I can revisit what to do with them later.
