I've just finished another pair of wristwarmers / fingerless gloves for winter. Between the problems with my joints, not at all helped by dear old letrozole, and terrible Reynaud's, I'm hoping they'll help. The cold is a huge trigger for the Reynaud's and also makes my hands ache even more. Regular gloves make knitting impossible and also can't turn the page on my kindle either. I've been tapping the screen on the tip of my nose or my chin to do this. Not sure if the bare finger tips will still be a problem. These were the sort of item I thought the pressure garment folks might find useful to hide the hand part sticking from the end of winter long sleeves, as some had not liked the ugliness of them.

Clever YOU! Those are gorgeous - I hope they do the trick. I have some fingerless fishing gloves that I'll take with me to the Snowys on my Otis retreat (leaving tomorrow.) Also got some other fleecy gloves too - and taking some hand warmers - You click the silver bit & the whole thing warms up!! I have one that goes around my neck as well. These smaller ones, you can keep in your pocket. The red one (after it cooled down) goes opaque & needs 'boiling up again' as they are 'multi use' - then they go clear & squishy again like the green one.I bought a pair of these 'fingerless arthritis gloves' late last year too, so will take them too ...... these are the 'large' and only just fitted MY hands (they are very snug - also very long! LOL) ..... wouldn't want too have really big hands!!

I hear you @"Annie C" have been waiting for this. This is our time of year with beautiful weather. I have one jumper and one jacket. Just had a sheet over me last night. :) Mind you trade off at the end of the year isn't so great, but boy am I going to make the most of these dry season months ahead. xo

@kitkatb This is the time of the year when I know I live in God's Paradise. People come to holiday, and I live here!However, ask me in March and I will snarl, "I'm not staying another wet season". I have been saying that for 25 wet seasons.

Great colour! I use fingerless gloves regularly as it is nearly impossible to work in an office with the full fingered ones. Fingertips still suffer but something is better than nothing. I saw some gloves in a shop the other day that said you can still use iPads etc whilst wearing them, but they were very expensive.

They look brilliant, @AllyJay! I've been wearing fingerless gloves for donkey's years as I like not having to take them off to do anything but nothing as stylish as yours.

@arpie I love the fact they almost cover your fingers. I will need to look for these.

They were Aldi ones @Blossom1961 - I thought I just had short fingers! LOL I have packed about 4 pairs of different gloves, including neoprene fishing ones as well! LOL
