Great story! Thanks for passing it along.

Although, when I first redd your post, I thought YOU were the mitten maker.

I’ve seen more Bernie’s mittens and Bernie memes than anything else related to yesterday.

I don’t know what that means.

@loki A return to normalcy.

Would you rather Biden have claimed his inauguration audience was bigger than the Super Bowl so we could be arguing about that?

I was commenting more on society and the impact of social media. Important events occur but all the people want are the dopamine hits they get from being funny. That might be frightening. To be clear my comment has nothing to do with partisan politics.

Bernie and Mittens....

@jodi very cool story.

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!

@catseye3 this is my pair, three different sweaters, knit cuffs and fleece sewn in on the inside. Super warm!

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.

[jodi]

Lol.

Jodi, your mittens are t3h bomb! Did you make them? If so, what was the process?
