Lion Brand Stress Relief Gloves for Knitters, Hit or Miss?

Lion Brand Stress Relief Gloves brings a new option for wrist comfort for many crafters, it’s slightly compressing made with Nylon and Spandex so it doesn’t have that cotton thick feel these gloves are both breathable and lightweight. As someone who lives in compression garments, I would estimate these gloves are only about 5mmhg to 10mmhg of compression. While the glove part of the gloves are a single ply on either side there are two seams that do press into the hand with use, so they do leave temporary marks; something to keep in mind if you crochet before an important or photographic event. The wrist part however is two ply going around which does provide a little extra wrist support like a level 1 wrist support depending on size of glove to hand.

As a former violinist I do already suffer from angry wrist syndrome (tendinitis - mild) plus crocheting a king size blanket in a month which completely pulled me from crocheting for almost 6-8 months. That being my prior history hopefully helps the understanding of where I’m coming from for this review. I wear a size small, though extra small would be better but atlast they only have small and medium at least that I can quickly find on the joann’s website which is kind of disappointing that they don’t have larger sizes. These gloves are initally tight going on and I would make sure any hand/wrist jewelry is taken off prior to putting it on because the fingers cut outs don’t have a seam to keep them from unraveling, though mine as survived one round in the dryer so far. I own two pairs of these, the first part I wore for about 72 hours over a few days and they did stretch out so they weren’t as compressing which was pretty annoying because that compression let me sit for hours without feeling any sort of wrist pain (always make sure to stretch your hands and take breaks) after throwing them in the dryer they did shrink back down a little bit but they still weren’t as compressive as when I originally put them on.

Usefulness ⅘

I have definitely noticed a change in my normal crocheting with these gloves, I can definitely crochet longer and faster (yet to know if this is a good thing or not, need longer time to determine) but they do seem to helpful while I’m wearing them; the spandex/nylon mix does keep my hands warmer and seems to help the blood circulation in my hands and it doesn’t seem over slippery at least with how I hold my hook (violin bow like). While I do complain about the lack of protection seams about the finger holes they have held up in the dryer at least once, I think I might have twice; they don’t have any loose threads or signs of the holes expanding. While I do have smaller hands I can not speak about larger hands stretching them out if it cause the seams to come undone or not. I do wish they came in more colors but I do like that they are bright blue so when I put them down I can easily see them so I will add that as a bonus because I do tend to misplace things.

Price Point ⅗

These gloves retail for $16.99 prior to any discounts, for the first pair to weaken after the first few days was really disappointing, this score may change after I wear the second pair more to see if they hold up better and for longer. Joanns does current offer three gloves, the gloves in this review, then Thergonomic Hand Aids (comes in large and made with the same material and the same price) but also have Dritz Crafters Comfort Gloves - Cloth like and longer finger coverage which are $19.99; I would say that this Lion Brand Stress Relief Glove is a little more expensive than it needs to be because there is no finger coverage, no protect seams in the finger or thumb holes.

These are just my first impressions after having them for about 2-3ish weeks. I do have another pair by Sparthos Wrist Support Compression gloves coming so I will definitely be comparing the two after they arrive. I am a true Sparthos fan with their compression socks. I'm excited to see if their gloves hold up.

Final thoughts; as someone who does have extra small hands fitting into size small I would say you aren’t going to get as much support as if you have the correct size, and if you are prone to edema and swelling I wouldn’t recommend them myself just in case of the lack of protection seams and it would suck if they broke after a few uses. If you have ‘normal’ hands, I would suggest trying them to see if they help, their as comfortable as they can be for light compression

Meet lucky. Lucky was meant to be a cat 🙈 but looks more like a little piglet. Amigurami is not my favourite thing to crochet, im just not good at it. Super cute either way though and my youngest is over the moon! So it’s a success. 😊 #amigurumi #crochetcat #crochetersofinstagram #amigurumicat #häkel #häkelkatze #crochetersoffacebook #crochetersoftiktok
