Scraped knuckles

Does anyone know of a lightweight glove that can be worn while swimming? Something like thin cotton gloves, but a material that won't absorb water and be difficult to remove. When sharing a lane with someone who takes up a lot of room I try to stay close to the lane line out of self-preservation. Occasionally I hit my knuckles on the line, so I usually have a few skinned spots on my hands. I figured gloves might help. So would swimming in a straighter line, but that gets messed up by the other guy's wake.;) Does anybody else run into this problem? Tom

    I have this problem too. It doesn't happen every workout but when it does it's bad. The ones I got from doing fly last week are definitely going to leave a scar. The concern with the webbing gloves is that it leads to shoulder problems, right? What about some kind of no-webbing neoprene glove, like the kind they use for scuba?
