Irish Wool Capes & Shawls – Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Origin of the Irish Wool Cape?
The classic cape, which fastens at the neck and drapes below the knees with a hood, is a direct descendant of the cloaks worn as far back as the Bronze Age. The traditional Irish shawl, or “Galway Shawl,” was a single piece of fabric—woven, knitted or crocheted—typically finished with a fringe. These shawls became popular in the late 19th century and were worn in Ireland up until the 1950s.
