Simple Knitted Apple Demonstration
We are bringing back a simple holiday knitting project from a class originally taught in 2009 by the wonderful Jeanne McCanless. This apple ornament is easy to make, and a great way to use up leftovers of fingering, sock, sport and worsted weight yarn. We will go over the different steps needed to create these adorable apples.
Join us virtually this Saturday morning, November 21st, from 10-11 on facebook live.
Join Rosie in the kitchen this Friday between 6-7 pm via facebook live as she makes butternut squash pecan casserole. A simple recipe, perfect to make for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.
She will also talk about our gift baskets, which we are excited to share with you. If you miss it, you can watch the videos and get the casserole recipe on the At Home Store blog.

When Rosie first started thinking about opening the store, back in 2001, her Nicholas Mosse bunny mug immediately came to mind. It was gifted to her by a friend who had made a visit to Ireland in the 1990s. Nicholas Mosse Pottery has been a staple of the store ever since. We are now excited to have our collection of Nicholas Mosse pieces up on the website.
Each year we receive paperwhite bulbs to plant for the holidays. We are very happy to say that we have a wonderful batch of fresh bulbs in the store, ready to plant.
Each year we look forward to receiving shipments of our favorite holiday foods. Stollen and lebkuchen from Germany, panforte and amaretti from Italy, French truffles, and more.
Thanksgiving is a time for being grateful for all of the good in our lives, and a time for sharing the good with others. While we would love to gather with our friends and family, this year we will be forgoing large family gatherings and travel, and will be staying at home with our household family for Thanksgiving dinner. There is still so much to be grateful for, and even though this is not going to be the traditional Thanksgiving, we all can make the day as special as we can. Let’s think of how to make a lovely day and celebrate that spirit of Thanksgiving in different, creative ways.
