See also this Google Doc for some photos of handwarmers that I've made in the past, which you can also request.

Sizing and materials

Modelled on hands that are 7.5 inches circumference around the knuckles.

Handwarmers are 75% wool and 25% nylon, unless otherwise stated. Machine-washing at 40°C is fine, but do not tumble dry or iron.

One size fits every hand I have encountered. The photo on the right shows how stretchy they are.

Allergy information: Handwarmers contain wool. I have a cat. I do not smoke.

Environment

Where possible I do my best to think low-impact when making and posting handwarmers.

  • I have a preference for second-hand and unwanted yarn when I buy - although, full disclosure, most yarn is bought new.
  • I choose machine-washable yarn (which is usually 20-25% nylon) for durability.
  • Handwarmers are posted in a reused envelope, or if none are available, a recycled envelope.
  • Envelopes and parcels are sealed with gum if new or with paper packing tape if reused.

Postage and packaging

The following are prices for one pair of standard handwarmers only. Shipping is from the UK. More or longer pairs might cost more to post.

Please note that the prices were correct on the date shown, but the prices may have gone up since then. I will check and inform you before charging you.

This table only includes countries I have already posted handwarmers to. If your country isn't listed you can contact me and ask how much postage would be. Or if you want to work it out yourself:

  1. Go to https://www.postoffice.co.uk/postage-finder/
  2. Start typing your country in English, then select it from the dropdown.
  3. Enter the parcel weight, 60g, and click "Next".
  4. Choose "Large Letter" and click "Next".
  5. Choose "International Standard Large Letters" and click "Next".
  6. Under "Estimated Price", you'll find the minimum postage price for your country.

Please note that there may be a slight variation to take into account PayPal fees, and this calculator does not provide prices for the slightly cheaper and slower option of "surface/economy mail" - so the final P&P fee that I charge may differ by £1 or so in either direction. If you're not sure and you want an accurate quote, please feel free to contact me.
