Warm & Toasty

I walked by them a few times intrigued by the mix-matched wool clippings from old sweaters, making each mitten unique in the pair. They were staring at me at the Kimberton Whole Foods in Douglassville on my weekly shopping trips and I finally bought them (when they went on sale) and my hands could not be more appreciative! They are fleece-lined making them super warm.

It turns out there is a great background story here...aside from them being made by some locals, two sisters started making them as thank-you gifts when their mother was in hospice. Now, they have turned it into a business.
