I have quite small hands and I struggle to find lady's gardening
gloves which are not too big for me.
Can anyone recommend a particular brand/source please?

It would help to know what size you need *and* type of glove preferred.

I am not expecting you to supply them.
I am interested in brands/source for "small - lady's gardening
gloves".Full Stop. Not too difficult?
(I love when you get smart arses on these groups)

Any large garden centre sells different TYPES of gardening gloves in
sizes from small to large. How easy is that?

You must be one of them. But not smart enough to answer the most
important question.

Every gardener here knows that what TYPE of gardening gloves to buy,
depends on what TYPE of gardening work they are to be used for. I use
five different types of glove depending on what garden work I'm doing.

The reason for my post is that I have tried the local gardening
centres - and all ladies gloves there are too big.
Hence my starightforward question here.
I see you really know how to encourage new joiners to the group: or is
it a private memebrs club?

Not a private member club Liz but very cliquey and you have to 'be in' an
send each other open emails for everyone to see.

You will see what I mean by the response I get to this posting. (Upset them
tooooooooooooo much and you get the threat of a letter to your family ;-)

Well, the sarcasm wasn't really necessary; I was simply trying to find
out your size (so I can compare with my own experience) and whether or
not you prefer cotton/canvas/leather gloves.

Without that information, I can merely tell you that I use the Aquasure
pvc gloves in size 6/7 and find them just about right. I have also
tried a floral cotton canvas glove which fits but is more snug. I also
find when I wash the latter, that they come up even smaller and I have
occasionally passed them on to a friend with tiny hands. You may find
this your most useful approach. Alas, I cannot remember the brand name,
but if I can find out I will post a link here.

Actually, Liz, we're a very friendly newsgroup and welcome newcomers,
but we often have to ask a few questions to tailor the answer to the
Original Poster (OP); yourself in this instance. Please try and be
patient with this process - we're only trying to help.

Do hang around and make use of this helpful group. I hope you manage to
find the gloves you need.

What a response to a perfectly reasonable question. Knowing those two
details would have enabled us to help you much more easily, as we use
different gloves for different jobs. Today, cutting back a rose, I
was wearing some gauntlets that go way up past my wrists and have
leather palms. Another day, I would want something lighter and finer so
that I could feel what I was doing more easily. Why should anyone do
your research for you after that piece of abysmal rudeness? I can't
think of one good reason why any urgler should bother to spend one more
second on you and your vile temper. We're not paid to run around after
you.
