Aran knitwear was first developed in the 1800s for fishermen in the Aran Islands, Ireland, and has since grown in popularity into a world-famous fashion item. The natural beauty of Aran Knitwear can be accredited to the attention to detail in the stitching. Every pattern carries symbolism which unites the knitwear with the heritage and history of the Aran Islands. The Harwell Hat is made in Ireland and features the ‘Diamond Stitch’ this is a pattern that symbolises the shapes of the fishing mesh islanders used symbolising wealth and success.
Merino Wool contains a natural crimp, or air pockets, which can hold body heat around your body – keeping you exceptionally warm. It is breathable as it can absorb 35% of its weight in moisture, which can then evaporate to release moisture. Wool also has odour-resistant properties due to its natural antibacterial effects. Bacteria responsible for odours find it hard to stick due to the wool fibre structure, which makes it highly functional as you won’t have to wash it daily.
