They catch the fabric and it just feels terrible. So any other gardeners out there what lotion do you like? I just don't think I can stand to wear gloves while I play...plus I have tried several times and always end up loosing them after a few times.
I remember when I use to paint my art teacher advised us to use a cream that coated your hands like a doctor's glove. Perhaps that would help you as well? You can buy it in the art section of some department stores or go to an art shop.
