Saturday Night Social: Hosted By a Life-Size Crochet Doll of Bernie Sanders and His Date

Latest

It appears to just be his top half, but still, this is a very large Bernie Sanders doll.

The AP reports on a woman who doesn’t give up, especially not on finishing crochet projects after the delegates have been counted:

Donna Burdick, a delegate from Everett, crafted the life-sized upper body of Sanders, complete with tie and eyeglasses, shortly after the caucuses earlier this year. The final touches — his teeth and a bird on his shoulder — were added on Friday, the first day of the convention.
She said that she brought him because Sanders is “always by my side.”
“He represents everything I represent,” she said. “He can’t be at our convention today, so I thought I’d bring him and raise awareness about Bernie.”

Happy Saturday!
