I only take them off at night or when getting my hands wet. After spending hundreds of dollars on hand splints, these are the most comfortable things l've ever worn. My thumbs start hurting when the gloves come off.

Slip on the Knitter's Hand Stabilizer and it supports that joint at the base of your thumb, so it stops shifting around every time you work a stitch.
The soft contoured pad holds your thumb steady while you knit, so you can still grip your needles the way you always have, and get a good while longer before the deep ache creeps in.
Rigid thumb splints stop the sliding by locking the whole thumb in place. The pain stops, but so does any chance of knitting.
Wrist braces lock the whole wrist down. Fine at night while you sleep, but sit down to knit and you can't move your wrist or your thumb. You can't grip a needle. You can't even hold a coffee.
Cortisone shots, NSAIDs, kinesiology tape all calm the inflammation around the joint. None of them stop the joint sliding. So the moment you knit again, the cycle restarts. The first cortisone shot might buy a few months, the second buys less, and the third usually leads to surgery.
Tens of thousands of people already trust Hand Hearth for our heated gloves. So when so many of them wrote in asking for help with their thumb pain, we put our hand specialists to work.
Our designers built it around the one joint that's actually sliding: a contoured CMC pad that holds the base of the thumb steady, smooth yarn-glide fabric that won't snag your wool, and all four fingers left free to knit.
We make a small number of things, properly, for the women who actually use them.
Here's why the cheap ones failed — and we don't.

Answers to the questions we get most
Slide your hand in like a fingerless glove, with the firmer contoured part sitting snugly across the base of your thumb where it meets the wrist. Your four fingers stay free to knit, work a hook, or hold a cup of tea. For the first few sessions, wear it for 15 to 30 minutes so your hand settles into it. After that, wear it for as long as you are comfortable.
Finding your size
It takes a minute, and you only measure once.
1. Measure — Wrap a soft tape measure around your palm at its
widest point, just below the knuckles, with your thumb relaxed
out to the side. No tape
measure? A strip of paper or piece of string works just as well:
wrap it round, mark where it meets, then hold it against a ruler.
Measure your dominant hand, or whichever is wider. Each order
includes a left and a right, so one size covers the pair.
2. Read — Keep it snug but not tight, and note the measurement.
3. Match — Find your number below:
Small 7"–7.5" (18–19 cm)
Medium 7.5"–8.5" (19–21.5 cm)
Large 8.5"–9" (21.5–23 cm)
On the border between two sizes? Choose the smaller one. A snug
fit at the base of the thumb gives the best support, and the
fabric gives a little as it settles in.
Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent, then lay it flat to dry in the shade, out of direct sunlight. Please skip the tumble dryer and do not use bleach.
It is shaped to support the areas most affected by these. It runs along the thumb side of the wrist and cradles the base joint at the inner palm, and it supports thumb movement where catching sensations like trigger thumb are felt.
It is a daily support to wear during activity, not a medical device or a cure, so if you have a complex hand history we would always suggest a word with your hand specialist first.
Many customers came to us after rigid splints and compression gloves did not suit them, and found this a gentler, more comfortable support.
It is made from a blend of synthetic materials:polyester fibre, nylon, spandex,and afoaminsert. It is latex free and contains no wool, no lanolin, and no mammalian derived fibres, so it suits those with an alpha gal allergy.
If your skin reacts to polyester or spandex specifically, please know they are present before you order.
Yes. Every order comes as a matched pair, one shaped for your left hand and one for your right, so you receive both. We are not able to split pairs or sell two of the same side.
Every order is covered by our 60 day money back guarantee with free returns. That gives you plenty of time to wear it through a few sessions and see how it suits your hands. If it is not right for you, write to us and we will sort it out.
