While I was watching Downton Abbey, Part 2

     Hallo Friends! I hope this finds you all well.

     As it goes with things in life sometimes, my plans didn't quite go as I had planned this week. First I ended up working on Sunday night and didn't get to watch "Downton Abbey" that night. Second I was going to continue working on the afghan that I showed you last week. Well low and behold, I did not have the color yarn I had wanted to continue with. This will mean a trip to Hobby Lobby, but that is not around the corner from my house, because I live in the country. So this will have to wait until I get a chance to go there sometime next week. Has that ever happened to you?

     So I went to plan B. On Monday I watched "Downton Abbey" from a recording. I also decided to work on a different project until the time I can get the new yarn. 

     Recently I got this new books on crocheted shawls. There are many lovely patterns inside and I will try and make each one of them as time goes by.




     I decided on this pattern, but not the same color and I chose white




Here is the beginning







And this is how far I made it while watching my favorite show




And now a little close-up




     Wow, "Downton Abbey" is going to be sooooo goood this season. I just love that show. Can't tell, can you? Are you watching? Are you looking forward to what is coming next? Personally I can't wait for next Sunday. Wish I could rush it along.

     Ok that's enough yapping about this show. What's happening in your neck of the woods?
