Tightly knitted using 0-size needles and DK weight yarn. The off-white yarn is natural sheep color, 100% wool from Estonia. The red and blue are hand dyed, natural Estonian wool. They are perfect to block wind and wear in winter. Beautiful triangular ribbing is very elegant, like a bracelet around your wrist.
