Piper's technique for playing Low D Irish Flutes, Whistles

The classical flute grip isn't suited to playing Irish flutes even for players
with large hands, it is better to use the ‘Piper’s Grip’. This is especially
true for small-handed flute players.

The Piper's grip allows the player to cover the tone holes with minimal effort
and does not contort the fingers in doing so.

Check out these diagrams. I’ve marked with black the part of the finger that
should cover the tone hole on the first three fingers of the right hand.
This grip also applies to the left hand as well.
