Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to article carriers (90) for forming a package and blanks (10; 110; 210; 310) for forming the article carriers (90). The blank (10; 110; 210; 310) comprises at least one panel (12; 112; 212; 312) having at least four article receiving openings (RT1). The at least one panel (12; 112; 212; 312) comprises a handle feature. The at least article receiving openings (RT1) are arranged in two rows. The handle feature comprises at least one handle opening (Ha1, Ha2, Ha3) located at a centre (C) of the at least four article receiving openings (RT1). The at least one handle opening (Ha1, Ha2, Ha3) is defined at least in part by a pair of first tabs (16, 18; 140, 142; 216, 218; 340, 342, 370, 372, 374, 376) hingedly connected to the at least one panel (12; 112; 212; 312) by a pair of first divergent fold lines (17, 19; 141, 143; 341, 343, 373a, 373b, 375a, 375b) respectively. Each of the first tabs (16, 18; 140, 142; 216, 218; 340, 342, 370, 372, 374, 376) comprises a height dimension (H1) extending between the respective first fold line (17, 19; 141, 143; 341, 343, 373a, 373b, 375a, 375b) and a free end of that first tab (16, 18; 140, 142; 216, 218; 340, 342, 370, 372, 374, 376). The height dimension (H1) may be equal to or greater than a distance (He) between the centre (C) and each of the first fold lines (17, 19; 141, 143; 341, 343, 373a, 373b, 375a, 375b).
