5. The Aran Boyfriend Cardigan by Daryl K
Last on my list is a particularly personal favorite. In 2017, I was delighted when my dear friend , the renowned New York based Irish fashion designer Daryl K agreed to collaborate with The Irish Store to re-imagine the classic Aran boyfriend cardigan. The results were just stunning. Her creation comes in slate gray or teal-colors inspired by the ever-changing seascapes of Ireland’s Atlantic coast. Listen to Daryl talking about her inspiration in the short video below;
