The Process
How ReMitts turns wool sweaters into mittens
Wool sweaters are donated by Madison-area thrift stores and ReMitts' supporters.
Volunteers launder the sweaters in hot water and dry them in hot dryers, causing the sweaters to shrink or “felt.”
Pattern pieces are cut from the felted wool, combining complementary colors and designs.
Women's mittens are embellished with buttons, which are also donated.
Raised for Charity since 2009
