Warm and cool: Hello, ReMitts!
Any true Wisconsinite can vouch for the verity of this fact: Mittens are warmer than gloves.
And these particular mittens are also cooler than gloves.
The ReMitt Project features one-of-a-kind recycled mittens crafted by volunteers from colorful used wool sweaters. ReMitt sales benefit the north side’s River Food Pantry and are for sale at its headquarters (2201 Darwin Rd.) as well as at UPS Stores (1213 N. Sherman Ave. and 4230 East Towne Blvd.), DuWayne’s Salon (1214 N. Sherman Ave.), Manna Cafe (611 N. Sherman Ave.) and Coffee Gallerie (1865 Northport Drive). Mittens are $30 and come in men’s and women’s sizes. If you want to be a Badger, UW-Madison mittens are $40.
