Have you tried wristers? They’re basically tubes for your upper hand, wrist and lower forearm, with a little slit for your thumb. By keeping the blood at the wrist warm they keep your hands much warmer than they’d otherwise be, while letting you retain full freedom of motion for your fingers. They’re even better than fingerless gloves in that regard.

Wristers (we call them "pulse-warmers" here) are AMAZING. My Grandmother-in-law spends her days knitting hundreds of these, and now we have multiple plastic bags full of fluffy multicolured pulse-warmers that we don't know what to do with.

If anyone her wants to pay the postage from NZ, I'll happily send them around the world for no cost :)
