I got a thin pair of cotton gloves - for a Haloween costume actually[&:] and after the holiday cut just the bottom of the thumb tips off (I fly with thumbs only). I used them in November in Vermont; it was cold enough for me to warrant gloves, and they worked very well. Of course if you get cotton wet and it's all over. If it gets cold enough for something like that not to work, it's too cold for me to be flying. It's about enjoyment, not standing and freezing and slow moving thumbs controlling ~$1000 aircraft setup.
