Crochet Beautiful Handwarmers

Crochet beautiful handwarmers are not only practical but also a fun and creative way to keep your hands cozy in the colder months. Whether you're a seasoned crocheter or just starting out, handwarmers make for a great project that you can personalize with different colors and patterns. They can be a lovely gift for friends and family, adding a handmade touch to their winter wardrobe. The satisfaction of creating something unique with your own hands and seeing the end result is truly rewarding. So, why not grab your crochet hooks and yarn and start crafting your very own pair of stylish handwarmers to stay warm and fashionable all season long?

Materials:
Some beautiful fabric and matching thread
Rice
Sewing machine or needle and hands
Twill tape or ribbon for handle (optional)

Finished sizes:
Hand-warmers- 2 1/4″ by 2 3/4″
Warmer hand-warmers- about 4″ by 5″
Warm packs/bed warmers- 4 1/4″ by 13″

  1. Cut 2 rectangles of your chosen fabric. My hand-warmer cut size was 3″ by 3 1/2″. The larger hand-warmers were 4 3/4″ by 5 3/4″. The bed warmers were 5″ by 14″. But you can make them whatever size you want.
  2. Place the right sides of fabric together and sew around both longer sides and one short side, leaving one short side open. I used 3/8″ seams.
  3. Turn the piece right sides out and poke out the corners with a ruler or something to make them sharp. On the short side that was already sewn, sew it again with a 1/4″ seam.
  4. Fill with rice… There’s a kind perfect amount to fill it. You want to be able to sew it up in the end but you want a good amount in there. I used a couple handfuls. So technical, I know.

Fold in the open short edge, iron if needed to crease, and sew up with a 1/4″ seam to match the look of the other short end.

If you’re making a larger size, you may want to include a center seam or two for looks. You can also include a handle if you want. I sometimes use twill tape folded in two and sewn in on step 5.
