Chilly mitts at night

My little one has cold hands when she wakes for feeds in the night now it’s getting colder. Her torso is feeling a good temperature, which is the main thing, but I was wondering if she should have those little cotton scratch mitts on for bed? We never really did those in the newborn days as they’d end up off within seconds. And should her hands be free to get rid of any excess heat anyway? Also could they be a risk if she puts them in her mouth? I might be overthinking it!
