Harborside Aran

Harborside Aran’s creation was inspired by the traditional sweater styles and knitting techniques celebrated in the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland.

Description

The eponymous Aran sweaters worn by the fisherman who worked and lived on the islands have inspired knitters since the late 1800s. Traditional Aran sweaters were made with 100% wool. They were highly durable, hydrophobic—a necessity at sea!—warm, and, perhaps most notably, usually knit with high-relief textures and cable motifs. Incorporating textural stitch work like ribbing, plaits, bobbles, cables and Celtic Knots created a doubly warm fabric well suited to life at sea.
