Irish Aran

Irish Arans evolved in the early part of the Twentieth Century as a way to bring extra income on barren islands that yielded so little. Originally made of undyed yarns, these boxy sweater with deep skirts (ribbings) and deeply textured surfaces were knitted flat, incorporating the beautiful saddle shoulder.
