MACK: I was laid off from HHS and now people aren’t getting social services, especially people with disabilities
BANKS: You probably deserved it
MACK: Why did I deserve it?
BANKS: Because you look like a clown

A Black man just beat the record for the longest filibuster, defeating the record previously held by a man who filibustered the literal Civil Rights Act.
As the time ticked over, Cory Booker announced he did it not out of hatred for who he opposed, but out of love for those who supported him.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

New hat designs!
Longer slouchy hats and a shorter version!
The hats have been a hit at the last couple of shows so they will be a permanent part of my inventory. The style I had at the shows will also be made in a larger version for those who needed a little more room.

Custom order finished! This sweater was a lot more challenging than expected. After washing, a lot more holes showed up. It was challenging placing the pieces to cut out, and I ended up having to weave some sections back together, but I think the end result was worth it.
Warm hands. Good vibes.

Next weekend is a sustainable living conference in my small town. "Back 2 Basics" is a conference I have vended at for many years due to the nature of my mitten production. I take damaged or old sweaters and give them new life as mittens. Upcycling wool and other items to make warm and cozy mittens.

A couple piles of sweaters freshly washed, ready to be folded and shelved, waiting to be made into the warmest mittens you will ever own.

From headed to a landfill to a warm pair of mittens. This vintage sweater had many issues, but they will now be a great pair of mittens. They are slightly wonky (stripes don't match) and the colors are dated, but these mittens were made with pride and good vibes.

This pair of mittens is headed to Spain! My 20 yo son is going to be spending the next semester studying in Madrid and is bringing gifts for his host family. MN wild rice, Pearson's salted nut rolls, strawberry/rhubarb jam and MITTENS.
Safe travels, son!

This beautiful Dale of Norway vintage sweater is my next custom order. This sweater has sentimental value but has developed holes and other problems over the years. 3 pairs of mittens will be made for her and her daughters.
