Aran Isle Sweaters

Hand-knitting was first introduced to Ireland in the 17th century. However, it appears that some similar craftsmanship was present in Ireland over a thousand years ago. In the forward to the now out-of-print book, The Complete Book of Traditional Aran Knitting by Shelagh Hollingworth, knitting historian Heinz Edgar Kiewe says that he discovered an image in the Book of Kells in which Daniel was wearing Aran knits - stockings, breeches, and a sweater! Perhaps the monk who drew that particular image was recreating a vision because there are no records of Aran sweaters until the 20th century!

Brightly Colored Shops in Dingle by Richard Cummins from Barewalls Photos & Prints

 



Can't Find it?!

Our Shops are compiled from what we know and like. If you can't find what you're looking for read on.

Irish Shop, US & Ireland.
General, they carry Heritage Crystal (offshoot of Waterford), clothing, much else and have an inordinate number of pub & den signs. They do not carry any foodstuffs or perishables.

LollySmith, US.
General, with many items that are hard to find, such as Blackthorn walking sticks. The best Guinness collection (& prices) we've seen. They also carry a great sense of humour.


Celtic Attic, USA
They carry a wide variety of products from food to fashions, and, as the name implies, they aren't exclusively Irish. Enjoy browsing and discovering unusual items such as Celtic sea salt and a genuine St. Brigid's Cross made in Ireland of river rushes.

Simply Irish, Ireland.
General, no clothing but nice Irish Linen. Jewellry - including heraldic rings & pendants, Connemara marble, music and more.

Celtic Shamrock, US.
General, Belleek China, Galway Crystal, fun stuff and, not so commonly, - candles, food hampers & the irish Flag!

Creative Irish Gifts Many unique products you won't find any where else. Best of all, part of their profits help support the Irish Children's Fund which fosters understanding between Protestant and Catholic youngsters in Northern ireland.

Waterford
The name says it all - Waterford is the leading brand of premium crystal. Its products - superb handcrafted crystal stemware, giftware and lightingware - are designed and manufactured to the highest standards.


You will see other items on these pages not from any of the above shops. They are truly unique sources. If you are interested in these 'one of a kind' items, just click on what you see and find out what other items (if any) they may offer.
