Funny things happen in school holidays. All the projects I have been thinking about casting on all term suddenly demand that I start them now. So of course I pick something. Something called "My So Called Scarf"
It feels really good to be working on something new.

Then something else happens. We have a few cooler nights and requests start sneaking in.
A brown beanie for one person. A beanie is a pretty small project, I can deal with that.
Miss B decides that if I can knit for that person, then it's about time I started her Central Park Hoodie. She is right, so Central Park Hoodie gets started.

Nanna looked like she would really like to run off with a pair of fetchings last time she was here, so she gets a pair made especially for her, colour chosen by Miss B.

We visit Nanna and drop off her Fetchings . Big grins and squishy hugs follow.
Nanna definately knows how to recieve a handknit and has ensured a place in the "people to knit for" list.
Later that night we speak to Great Grandma, recipitant of the Green Tree Frog Socks ( also on people to knit for list), and she explains that since having knee surgery her knees ache. The Doctor has recommended she keep her knees warm and could I please make her some knee warmers.
Of course I can.
Well, I could if I actually knew what they were.
Something like leg warmers I was imagining.
And this is where I love the internet so, so much.

A pattern. Already there. Exactly what I need. Perfect.
And that is how the WIP list grows.
