Tie-dye Knit Arm Warmers

~* Tie-dye Knit Arm Warmers *~

These super cute arm warmers are so warm and comfortable! Made from beautiful tie-dye effect wool and fully fleece lined, they are really warm. And these arm warmers have the added bonus of leaving the ends of your thumbs and fingers free to use your phone, or keys, or eat your mince pie without the bother of removing them like you would with gloves! The arm warmers are nice and long too, going right up your arm towards the elbow for extra warmth and snuggliness. The slight stretch in the wool and fleece means that they will fit a wide range of hand and arm sizes comfortably. Perfect for winter, and for chilly festival nights too. These arm warmers are available in three gorgeous colours, a striking hot pink, mossy sage green and autumnal red.

Outer 100% Wool + 100% Fleece Lining. One size fits all.

Handmade and Fairly Traded from Nepal

Handwash in Cold Water only. Dry flat to prevent stretching out of shape.

Knitting in Nepal

Often employment can be difficult to maintain for many women in Nepal, who need to balance work with managing their homes and looking after not only their children, but also older and extended family members. Knitting is a great way for them to continue to earn whilst also being flexible. Hand knitted items can be picked up and put down. Knitting is also a great way for women to socialize in their communities as they sit and knit. This means that they can take on as little or as much work as they feel able to do, and can supplement their family income in an empowering way that compliments their lifestyle. Knitting can also be done without the use of electricity or any additional equipment so can be done all year round – Nepal suffers from electricity shortages in the colder months. By buying items knitted in Nepal we are empowering women to become self supporting and to improve their lives.
