My recommendation as well. If you go to the website, follow their fitting instructions. I found the instructions to be very accurate and easy to follow. And buying the plastic one first was exactly what I did. Was very happy with the fit and found the style of thimble easy to use. When I upgraded to the stainless version the fit was identical.

ETA - Let me clarify my comments are regarding Thimblelady. No clue about Roxanne's other than they are very beautiful.
