Keep warm with a pair of cosy, stylish and sustainable fingerless gloves this winter! With no thumb gusset in the way, they fold back neatly into wrist warmers. The perfect eco-friendly gift for someone who thinks they don't need anything, especially in these days of sky-high heating costs!
9 gorgeous colours, 3 ways to wear them:
- Covering your hand and lower fingers as fingerless gloves (great for texting!)
- Folded part-way back to expose your fingers but cover your hand (great for knitting!)
- Folded all the way as a double layer around your wrist, covering the gap where sleeves may pull back and leave you cold (great for driving!)
ECO-CREDENTIALS: These arm warmers are hand knitted in what may well be the most sustainably produced wool available - Malabrigo merino wool. This wool is gathered from 100% ethically farmed, free range sheep in Uruguay, and spun and dyed by a family-owned company in Peru, employing mainly disadvantaged women and using environmentally friendly processes such as low-chemical, thermally heated dyeing techniques, and power from waste wood pellets. It's not cheap, but it *is* incredibly eco-friendly!
It's also one of the softest, snuggliest wools I've ever found!
DIMENSIONS:
Length: 8.25" / 21cm
Circumference: 9" / 23cm
Plus quite a bit of stretch in both directions!
These wrist warmers are designed to fit a woman's hand and wrist but can also be worn by an older child or a man with slimmer hands and wrists too. The ribbed stitching makes them very stretchy but conversely means they shrink back to cling to a narrower wrist too.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: hand wash in tepid water (a washing guide will be supplied with your wrist warmers)
Love these wrist warmers but want them in a different colour or size? Just contact me using the button above to discuss a custom order. Malabrigo make their yarns in all sorts of gorgeous colours, and I can easily adapt the size to your requirements too.

I aim to ship within 1-2 business days of purchase. However, if I don't have the colour you ordered already made up (currently all colours in stock) then I will need to knit them to order and it may take me up to 5 days. I will message you to confirm this with you.
If you need the item urgently, if you are in the UK please upgrade to Express service (Royal Mail tracked 24) or Special Delivery 1pm next day. If you are outside the UK, please contact me for a quote for a shipping upgrade by another courier.
All packaging is reused/recycled to keep costs down and avoid waste, and any tape used is biodegradable.
