I've bought several "small" thimbles, but still too big. What do you all do who have thin fingers?

Does anyone have a source for finding thinner thimbles? I'm singing the blues because my finger is sore and blue. :roll:
I have the same problem as you, my fingers are small and the arthritis makes it hard to buy any that fit me properly.Why don't you try and make some leather ones that fit your finger. If you cant ask a friend if they can. They are easy to make.
