What are they made from? 

Any type, colour and size of yarn with decorations like; ribbons, beads, crochet flowers, buttons, loops, zippers, buckles, pompoms, pocket for a hankie (they must be securely attached, so they can not be pulled off)

How to make them?

Approx. size 7inches wide x 11 inches long 

Don’t forget to sew in the ends!

 PS.. don’t forget the guys may like different colours and accessories on theirs  

Make sure accessories are not sharp  or dangerous and they are sewn on securely. 

Frustrated patients may use their TwiddleMuff aggressively. Please consider whether sewing on any metal objects could result in it being used as a weapon.

Bells... they may be great to play with, but please try not to use them as they may annoy others, when the twiddle muffs are being used.
