Arm Warmers

Ok so after looking at the Sock Dreams website I realized how badly I have wanted a pair of arm warmers. I had two pairs when coming to Canada but have lost both pairs it seems as they are nowhere to be found.
Any places online that sell them?

Etsy? I got some awesome ones there!

Yeah, Etsy has a bunch. The Sock Dream ones are great though! I got some black fingerless ones and I love them so.

i have a ton of cute knee socks and i've turned a few pairs into arm warmers by cutting off the foot and then cutting a little thumb hole. it works really well.

Ooh good idea IJDI, might try that. I had a look back at Sock Dreams website and totally missed the section full of arm warmers. I tried Etsy but nothing stood out to me so far but I got kinda bored on like the second page.

That's how I made some ghetto arm warmers: knee socks!

I like this site, they call them fingerless gloves. I ordered a short pair (not the long ones that are arm warmers)

FYI - that second one has wool although looks lovely.

Thanks for the heads up linanil, got all excited about the colour didn't think to look. But the first ones are dynamite anywho.

I have been trying to think of a solution for my cold arms that didn't mean adding yet another t-shirt. For some reason I seem to own a lot of 3/4 length sleeve sweaters and cardigans so my forearms have been freezing cold. I didn't realise armwarmers existed until I read this thread!

Ordered myself 3 pairs from Ebay and another pair from an English shop for really cheap. I love the ones at Sock Dreams but with shipping to England it's just too much, I bought 4 pairs for just over the cost of 1 pair from them.

When I manage to get to Portland next, however, I will need a spare suitcase and a new credit card with a high limit for all the socks and armwarmers I'm going to buy!

Thanks for posting about these, you may have saved me from hypothermia or my arms falling off, which would be annoying.
