Stroke Me Soother Twiddle Muff

By: Sarah Sullivan from crochet247.com
Stroke Me Soother Twiddle Muff

"Stroke Me Soother Twiddle Muff to provide warmth, comfort, and some soothing sensory stimulation to people living with symptoms of Alzheimer's, Dementia. Warms constantly cold hands and keeps agitated fingers occupied. The larger size can double up as a lap blanket, whilst the smaller size is just for hands but with added fur to stroke. I deliberately designed this project with beautiful soft and velvety chunky yarn, and used a variety of crochet stitches for texture and sensory interest."

NotesI wanted to offer an alternative to the bright colourful Twiddle Muff's made with scraps of yarn and very childlike.
For early stage Alzheimer's sufferers with cold hands and agitated fingers, a Twiddle Muff that is very soft and soothing to touch and stroke.
