I've used wristwarmers for years. And in an emergency I cut the tops off socks!

Do you 'knit' the beads in or sew them?

They are so pretty - I love wrist warmers - I have knitted loads of pairs in chunky and am now doing more delicate ones as gifts

I find them very useful for walking the dogs as I feel full gloves allow the lead to slip.

I knit them in RedHelen, less chance of them detaching that way, plus it's less hassle than a needle and thread :)

Thank you so much for getting back to me

They really do look so pretty - think I may have to get some and give it a go

If you are on Ravelry, they are a free pattern on there.
One is Presto Mitts, the other is Glacial Gauntlets of the Wolf. (I know, daft name)

I'm not but I will look this evening - thank you for the tip

I always thought they were called fingerless gloves, and wrist warmers were just a stretchy band worn on the wrist. You learn something everyday 🧤

[ferlew]

I call them fingerless gloves too Vagus, but on Ravelry I think the two terms are interchangeable.

i am no knitter - i get mine from here 

Cashmere Wrist Warmers | Turtle Doves (turtle-doves.co.uk)

they also have fingerless gloves, and they are differentiated by those having a hole in the side for your thumb

Lovely, and it is surprising how effective wrist warmers are at keeping hands toastie.

Some fingerless gloves are very short and don't keep your wrists warm
