The Merino wool and acrylic material work together to offer the best of both worlds: exceptional softness, heat insulation, and moisture-wicking properties.

Drawing inspiration from the renowned knitwear tradition of the remote Aran Islands, the design features intricate cable and moss stitches. The cable pattern has been used since the beginning of the 20th century when Irish fishermen wore raw wool sweaters to keep warm at sea. The texture of the patterns works to trap the body's natural heat to insulate against the cold, while still allowing for air circulation to avoid overheating. This symbolic pattern pays homage to Ireland's rich cultural history and heritage, reflecting the craftsmanship and artistry passed down through generations. The cable stitch represents the fishermen’s ropes and is a symbol of safety and good luck, while the moss pattern signifies abundance, growth, and prosperity.
Measuring a generous 60 inches in length and 40 inches in width, this throw ensures ample coverage, inviting you to snuggle up and enjoy moments of relaxation.
