Bamboo armwarmes - Eco friendly

I maded armwarmers for the summer! In the heat, bamboo is naturally cool to the touch, but it's also very warm in cold weather. Bamboo yarn gives a soft texture and a fluid drape.
But why bamboo is eco friendly? Here are some reasons:
-Bamboo is 100% naturally grown, without assistance for man.
-As the fastest growing plant in the world, bamboo grows to its maximum height in about 3 months and reaches maturity in 3-4 years. It spreads rapidly across large areas. Because of this, bamboo is known to improve soil quality in degraded and eroded areas of land.
-Bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilizers.
-Bamboo fibers is 100% biodegradable.

So, my "eco-armwarmers" are perfect for summer evening and to add a natural look to all your outfits. It is also a wonderful gift for someone you love...
They measures approx. 9 inches long. Maximum stretch: 4 1/2 inches flat in width. Hand-finished side seam. Horizontal thumb opening.

Easy care! Wash by hand or machine gentle cycle and dry flat.

Five solid colors available: Beige, Navy, Grey, Yellow and Natural. I also have some that are knitted using two different colors threads to create a pretty marbled effect. Four ombres colors available:Natural,-Beige, Gold-Beige, Bronze-Beige and Natural-Navy. I have many ready to ship in my etsy shop or i can made to order.
