The Aran Knit is a very special piece of clothing, it has so much history and it's the most comfortable item in my own wardrobe. Over the years, in line with ancient Irish folklore, many Clans adopted the Aran Sweater as the ultimate Clan symbol. Historically these patterns were safeguarded within families and passed down from generation to generation. Now more and more people can enjoy these beautiful patterns. I tried to find the names / clans of the patterns, they don't match precisely, but I named the sweaters after them just to inform you on this rich history.
This is a real Aran Craft original, very classic design and naturally mottled affect. This company was originally established by Molly Cullen in 1957, after creating beautiful Aran designs with her mother and grandmother for many years. Molly’s dream was to incorporate a family knitting business whose heritage stretched back for over 100 years. Molly is the granddaughter of Kate O’Shea, who, in 1856, was the first craftswoman in Ireland to commercially market her robust, hand knitted woollens.
