This seems like a product that maybe should not be copyrighted and guarded John Schmid, as it’s a work of love.

UPDATE: You can find a pattern for Twiddlemuffs here: Knitted Twiddlemuff For Dementia Patients [FREE Knitting Pattern].

Originally invented in 1997 by Margaret Light, for her grandmother, Lily, the Twiddle Muff is essentially a knitted 'tube', large enough to slip your hands into comfortably, and decorated with a wonderful range of large buttons, ribbons, keyrings, pompoms - even little pouches full of dried rice. Designed to fit comfortably around your lower back or tummy, but also suitable for the neck and shoulders when used without the cover, this instant heat pad is ideal for targeting aches and pains, improving poor circulation and soothing injuries. However, if there are any churches or similar sorts of charitable service organizations near you, and you let them know that you’re in need of wool and supplies so you and your group can continue charity knitting, I’ll bet you would get all kinds of folks wishing to donate their unused supplies to you.

VAT Relief for the disabled is a government scheme that allows the zero-rating of goods if certain conditions are met. All of the attachments are removable, allowing the Twiddle Muff to be cleaned by hand or by washing machine.It provides a wonderful source of visual, tactile and sensory stimulation and at the same time keeping hands snug and warm.
