Handmade 100% 8 Ply Cashmere Aran Turtleneck Sweater

The Fionn Turtleneck Aran Cashmere Sweater is a stunning piece that puts a luxurious contemporary spin on the authentic Aran Sweater-an icon of Irish design. Full of glorious textured stitched details, made with the finest quality 100% cashmere wool and handmade in Ireland, it so sumptuous and cosy.

Every detail of the Fionn Turtleneck Aran Sweater tells a story: The central panel of the front and back features the diamond stitch, which represents aspirations of future wealth. This is bordered either side with honeycomb stitch, a motif that pays tribute to the hard-working honeybee. On the shoulders and sleeves, plaits stitches recall similar designs that appear on stone high crosses, a remnant of Ireland’s Celtic past. The sleeves are completed with wide blocks of blackberry stitch, which represents the fruit of the brambles that grow thickly in the hedgerows of the Aran Islands, and reminds us of the natural riches of Ireland’s countryside. Finally, the collar, cuffs and hems of the sweater are decorated with fine cable knit motifs, a symbol of the ropes used by the islands’ fishermen in their daily work.

This Product is Designed and Produced in Ireland using Scottish & Italian Cashmere.
