Crafted with care and precision in Ireland by Aran Woollen Mills, this Supersoft Merino Aran Throw is an incredibly soft and versatile item that will stand the test of time. The throw is made using 100% SuperSoft Merino wool, a sustainable material with natural fibers that help regulate the body's temperature. This fine material is sustainably sourced from Merino sheep, offering exceptional breathability and softness. Its moisture-wicking properties make it suitable for outside use as well, whether you're having a picnic in the park or cozying up by the fireplace. What truly sets our throw apart is its authentic design, rooted in Irish tradition. This design dates back to the early 20th century when Irish fishermen from the remote Aran Islands wore raw wool sweaters woven with richly textured patterns to brave the harsh conditions of the sea. Similarly, the three-dimensional texture on this charming blanket serves to keep you warm and cozy while allowing for proper air circulation, ensuring you never overheat. Beyond their functionality, these lovely patterns hold deep meaning. The authentic design reflects artistry that has been part of Irish culture for generations, with cable stitches symbolizing good fortune and basket stitches meant to wish for a big catch. Measuring a generous 60 inches by 36 inches, this versatile item serves as a stylish piece of decor, a warm blanket for those cozy nights on the couch, or a picnic blanket to bask in the sun. Whether you're curling up with a book, sharing a meal outdoors, or adding a touch of Irish charm to your living space, this throw has got you covered. The Supersoft Merino Aran Throw is a piece of Irish history and tradition that you can wrap yourself in, making it a thoughtful gift for someone special or a wonderful way to treat yourself.
