The Aran jumper is an Irish icon. A world recognised symbol of the west of Ireland that has its roots in small coastal islands and villages along the Atlantic coast. We designed our Donegal Aran Jumper to feel great in. While a standard Aran jumper can be scratchy and stiff to wear, the STABLE Aran is lighter and made with merino wool so it stays soft on the skin. We created a looser and more relaxed fit so it is comfortable to wear with any outfit. The basketweave stitch found in the centre front and back panel replaces the blackberry stitch found in our Hand Knit Aran. The diamond stitch is a traditional design replicating fishing nets and was used as a symbol for wealth and success. The cable stitch reflects the 'intertwining strands of life'. Our yarn is woolen-spun, woven and made by local artisans in Donegal. Jumpers are unisex, and look equally gorgeous on women and men. Loose fitted in small, medium and large. Made in Ireland.     See a gallery with all the STABLE Donegal Aran Jumpers
