They're knit with two strands throught with hemp/wool yarn I got from a mama here that I I'm so gonna when I run out. Unfortunately I knit these when I was still kind of a fiber newbie and didn't realize that a high hemp content combined with double stranding would make them not stretch kwim? So the ribbing will because well, it's ribbing, but the length won't have much give, so they're mainly for just wee little hands. They can encompass my 6yo's hands but the ribbing is on the ball of her hand if that makes sense. Maybe I should unravel them idk I'm rambling.

I can get a pic of them if you want them I'd send them ffs after I close the thumb hole on one.
