The ornately dressed mantle, like the rocking chair, may not have been practical or affordable for many households at the time, but a hooked rug would have added a little warmth and style to the room. I have an old hooked rug made from scraps of wool. I'll post a picture of it soon.

Where did you find that picture? It is so neat.
Can wait to see the shawl.

I found it at the village. I love the look of the room. A fireside knitting spree complete with cat. What could be finer.
