Layering tops with extra long sleeves

8 replies

I don't have extra long arms but I hate cold wrists in winter!

I had high hopes for the cos merino top which has long sleeves with a thumb hole, but when I tried it on it felt so itchy and uncomfortable I couldn't wait to take it off.

100% cotton would be good but not essential.

Thanks 😊

The Intimissimi ultralight tops with cashmere are gorgeous and long sleeved properly. Not itchy at all

I bought some Turtle Doves cashmere fingerless gloves and live in them in the winter - I don't colour match my jumpers but contrast instead.

Try Uniqlo

Uniqlo. Definitely long sleeves to cover your wrist

I buy these from Amazon, 80% cotton with thumb holes…

Some great suggestions, thank you! I'm going to buy a few, definitely the Intimissimi, so I'll report back.

Thanks for the turtle doves suggestion, it has inspired me to chop up a gorgeous cashmere jumper that shrank in the wash. I should get wrist warmers and a snood out of it!
