A womens sweater is an important item, especially for fishers. Known as the “fisher Sweater”, they designed the Aran in the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland. This is a pullover sweater made from wool designed for the wet and cold lifestyle of fishers. A fisher’s wife uses unwashed wool to weave Aran. Irish sheep are darker, so a dark cream womens sweater.
They made many traditional Irish clothes of wool or linen. The upper classes could also afford silk products. The most commonly used pieces are cardigans, cardigans, scarves and gloves. These reflect the cooler coastal climates experienced by Ireland. The Irish concern with creating garments that are unique to them and seemed to have the characteristics of the people. Such as strength and sophistication.

By not scrubbing the wool, it keeps the natural oils that help it maintain its waterproof qualities. Which is excellent for life on a boat. Aran can absorb 30% of its weight in water and still keep the wearer warm and dry. Another style of womens sweater is the cardigan with open buttons on the front. Again, wool is the primary material for these sweaters.
Sweater
We appreciate the Irish for their unique sewing patterns, which vary from clan to clan. Patterns have meaning and their records preserved and passed down from generation to generation. Symbolism often has a specific religious or clan meaning. The pattern can identify an unfortunate fisher at sea on his sweater. If spotted by someone who doesn’t know him.
They also made the scarves used to keep out the cold of wool. When scarves and other garments are used for decoration, it may make them of linen with attention-to-detail stitching. Gloves are also an important protection against severe weather. Tweed hats made from wool are still popular and if made the old-fashioned way. It dipped them in blackberries, lichen, and gorse for a pop of Irish color.
Irish clothing is colourful with shades of yellow, orange, red, and green. It incorporated Celtic knot work into the pattern. Folds are common. Robes and capes are important outer garments. Although many modern Irish wear Western clothing, traditional Irish clothing can still be seen everywhere.
