Oh geez It's late or early (5am), depending on the type of person you are. I figured I would fill you in on my Monday adventure. I ended up falling asleep on the couch after being up all night cause I couldn't sleep. Been feeling that way lately not sure if I'm just bored or depressed or what the hell is going on but anyway, The hubby woke me up around 1 or so and I ended up just going into the bedroom and falling back asleep. About 4pm he woke me up again looking for the new toilet seat to put on. So he ended up doing that instead of me. We got ready so we could go out to dinner and then to movies. We went to Carraba's which was OK but extremely pricey to me, what we ended paying we could have went out to eat somewhere else 3 times. Then we went to see 2012, it was OK but 2 hours and 40 minutes is a bit much for it and the movie just drug on.

I also bought a new pair of Size 8 circular needles 29" long, i actually need a size 6 for this vest I'm making but they didn't have them so I'll have to wait till I can get over to Knitter's Edge or to Tucker's. I also machine knitted up a new swatch pattern for an alternative design to the vest, using Gray / Black / Lime Green and Fuchsia, It's really pretty.
colors are actually brighter then they look in the picture.

Machine Knitting these stripes seems to be a bit of a pain in the ass only cause when u switch yarns you have to cut the ends cause it doesn't do well with carrying the yarn up the sides which means you have to do alot of weaving in ends afterwards instead of as you go with hand knitting. I think I'm gonna take some pictures and add them to the blog. Maybe I'll even try to do some kinda redesign to it too.
