Church offers handmade Bernie Mittens for sale

CHESTER — You could call it a case of striking while the mitten is hot. The First Universalist Parish of Chester is offering felted, up-cycled, re-purposed, three-pattern mittens at its mitten sale on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. All that verbiage just means that they’ve been lovingly sewn from scraps of (usually) wool sweaters and coats picked up at thrift stores, lined with fleece that comes mostly from blankets, assembled into multi-colored and multi-patterned, very, very warm mittens, the church said in a press release. You know— Bernie Mittens. ” The church said several of its members have been sewing the mittens, since parishioner Liz MacCadie called FUPC board chair Melody Reed late one night, excited about the idea of making and selling the mittens: “But we’ve gotta act fast,” MacCadie said. “This is a craze.”
