The Irish don’t just write poetry, they knit it. Irish Aran explores the history, the stories, the patterns, the fashions and the unique legacy of Ireland’s most famous knitwear. From the wild Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland to the catwalks of Paris and Milan and the distant shores of America and Japan, Aran mirrors so much of what it is to be Irish.
The significance of the Aran knit is so much more than an unusually popular design. Arans communicate warmth, comfort and a sense of home, which people the world over continue to respond to. Vawn Corrigan explores how the Aran knit became so iconic.
