    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Thought this was a fun story. Saw the maker on tv this morning. Awesome. She said something like on that stage were all the designer outfits and there was Bernie Sanders wearing the mittens I made out of old sweaters on a sewing machine my mom gave me. ♥️

        Part Deux: (CNN Business)The Vermont school teacher behind the cozy mittens worn by Senator Bernie Sanders during President Joe Biden's inauguration on Wednesday said she's been flooded with requests from people wanting to buy a pair. But they're no longer for sale.

          @catseye3 😄😄😄 - a lot of people make them. Old wool sweaters felted, cut and sewn together. I have a pair I bought at a craft fair in Maine. There were several ladies selling them, and it’s hard to find old wool sweaters at the thrift stores now!

              Nice!

              Bernie should be so lucky to have mittens as nice as yours, Jodi.

                And just like that, the Bernie's mittens memes were over.
