A natural hand warmer inspired by the way that our people have always used muskoxen qiviut as a thermal insulator: in its raw form! Open the packet to find an impossibly soft cloud of qiviut, ready to tuck into the tips of your mitts, gloves, socks or boots for warmth that never fades.
Qiviut (muskox) fibre is traditionally used in Arctic communities for its unparalleled insulating properties and incredible softness. No chemicals and no litter: this natural hand warmer can be used over and over again--and easily washed when needed.
Contents: approx. 4 grams of washed and de-haired qiviut fibre
1 NUNA HEAT RAW: $19.99
2+ NUNA HEAT RAW: $35.98 ($17.99 each)
4+ NUNA HEAT RAW: $67.96 ($16.99 each)
Packaged in a biodegradable pillow box with labels designed by Lexis Panigaq McDonald.
INSTRUCTIONS: Remove qiviut from package and divide in half--one half for each mitten! Add to the ends of mitts, or inside socks or boots. You can even use qiviut inside the fingers of your gloves!
WASHING (how-to video here!): Hand warmers need washing only occasionally, but when you do want to clean them, add qiviut to a small container of warm, soapy water. Let soak, or give it a gentle scrub (but don't worry about felting it--it won't felt!). Rinse well, and lay out to dry. It will air dry very quickly and be ready to go!
QIVIUT QUALITY GUARANTEE: At Qiviut Inc, our qiviut fibre is 100% sourced from wild NWT muskoxen sustainably harvested for food in Inuit communities. We comb out our fibre by hand to preserve the full staple length, and we make all our products here in Canada!
