Poll Results: Hand Lotions
To conclude the discussion about hand lotions, I'd first like to thank the 63 of you who voted in the poll. (I was the 64th. :-) ) Here's how the voting ended up:
First Place, with 22 votes (34%):
Udder Cream, from Udderly Smooth
Second Place, with 16 votes (25%):
moisturize and treat only when not stitching
Third Place, a three-way tie with 5 votes:
Acid Mantle
Stitcher's Lotion
other (please leave a comment!)*
Honorable Mention, with 4 votes:
Gloves in a Bottle
Runners-up, with one or two votes each:
Au ver a Soie cream
none - just drink more water
St. Ives Whipped Lotion
Zoom Dry Therapy
homemade lotion
Only one entry (Skin M.D.) was completely left out. I'll have to find some and try it.
*As for those who voted for "other", only one left a comment (thanks, Pat!), and mentioned Aveda Hand Relief. I'm not sure if this is put on before stitching, or only used when not stitching. Pat, can you please educate us?
Thanks again for voting! By the way, does anyone have other suggestions for polls? What do you want to know about your fellow stitchers?

Aveda Hand Relief: I use it all day long and since I wash my hands a lot, it stays on for 2-3 washes. I stop using it before I fix dinner, and then stitch after dinner, having probably washed my hands three more times! But, it keeps my hands soft for working with the fibers. Hope that helps!
