After an intense election, rioting at the Capital Building, and an inauguration ceremony that was both solemn yet hopeful, who would have thought the day after the inauguration social media would be a buzz with memes of Sen. Bernie Sanders and his mittens?
Living in Vermont, we didn’t think anything was strange about how our Senator was dressed, as that’s how most of us dress for half the year. None the less we’ve had a lot of fun inserting Bernie in all sorts of pictures. You too can easily drop him into your neighborhood using this link.
However, we know if we want warm hands, the type of mittens worn by Bernie are the best. These are the directions/free pattern that I use to make mittens for myself, family and friends.
I make mine out two different types of fleece. It’s a great way to use up odds and ends, but the double layer keeps your hands warm. My husband swears by them when he is doing snow removal. I’ve also used them with other types of materials for the outer layer-cotton and jersey both work well.
