Each of these pieces represents authentic Irish craftsmanship.

The traditional Aran patterns you'll find in these sweaters - the cables, diamonds, and honeycomb stitches, each carry their own meaning, from wishes for good fortune to symbols of the fisherman's rope. When you wear an authentic Aran sweater, you're wearing a piece of Irish history.
