Bernie Sanders and his mittens have been the subject of memes since he attended the inauguration of 46th President Joe Biden on January 20th prompting the release of t-shirts to support Meals on Wheels Vermont, and now, an adorable crocheted doll from Tobey Time Crochet.
Tobey Time Crochet is a small business by Tobey King, where she s been crafting original crochet dolls for her Etsy shop since 2014. The Bernie Sanders doll isn t her first politically themed creation, however the meme s prominence certainly helped make it one of her most popular. Just like the original photo of Sanders keeping warm at the inauguration, the crocheted doll shows the senator in a surgical mask, olive green jacket, and of course, his wool mittens.
