WESTEND KNITWEAR: IRISH ARAN CREW NECK SWEATER

This versatile sweater, suitable for both men and women, is an attractive display of a variety of traditional Irish Aran stitches thought to bring good fortune to the wearer. The honeycomb stitch signifies the hardworking bee, the diamond will bring wealth and the Aran basket stitch is believed to bring good luck. Made of 100% wool, this warm and classic sweater is more than a piece of clothing—it’s a work of art. West End Knitwear was founded in 1957 by Molly Cullen, whose grandmother was the first craftswoman in Ireland to commercially market her hand-knitted goods.
