Bernie's Mittens

Bernie’s Mittens - Mittens inspired by those Bernie Sanders wore at Joe Biden’s Inauguration on January 20, 2021. Bernie’s own mittens were made by Jen Ellis, a Vermont schoolteacher who sewed them from patches of old wool sweaters. These are a little different as they repeat the same colorwork motif around the hand, while Sanders’ mittens featured contrasting thumb and black fabric across the palm.

Velvet Mittens

The Velvet Mittens pattern is an easy to crochet pattern using Bernat Velvet that includes a full video tutorial. This pattern also includes a knit version of the mittens. The mittens are created entirely out of single crochet, starting with the cuff. The cuff is worked side to side in the back loops only to give a ribbed effect, then the ribbing is turned and the thumb shaping begins. After increasing for the thumb, the thumb stitches are left unworked while working the rest of the hand, then picked up again at the end.
