Jen Ellis — the "Bernie Mittens Lady" — speaks to Vermont Edition co-host Connor Cyrus about what life has been like a year after Sen. Bernie Sanders became an internet sensation because of her mittens.
She talks about the good and the bad of her notoriety, explains why it was important for her to donate about $2 million (and counting) to Vermont charities through her mitten-related work, and how you can get your hands on a pair. You’ll also hear what's next for Ms. Ellis.
