Traditional Irish Retailer makes it's unique range Irish knit sweaters available for online buyers.
According to the census, more than 11 percent of the U.S. population claims Irish heritage. Of course, as they say, everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day!
As one of Ireland's largest retailers of Aran Irish Knit Sweaters, Irish Handcrafts now offer their distinctive range of Irish hand-knit and and machine-knit sweaters and cardigans directly from their store in Limerick, Ireland.
Through their state-of-the-art online store the company not only provides consumers in the US and other countries with a chance to shop from their homes, but an opportunity to celebrate what it is to be Irish and feel a little closer to the people and traditions of Ireland.
Spokesperson for the company, Michael Cusack believes that the traditional Aran fisherman sweater is definately on the way back. He cites the well known makeover show, Gok's Fashion Fix, which recently declared that the Aran sweater is a fashion hit after Gok restyled an Aran sweater on one of the shows.
"Women are wearing more and more traditional Irish wool sweaters these days. It seems like a new fashion statement is being made in huge numbers and we are certainly ready to supply the demand", says Michael.
"Our products range from ladies', men's and children's sweaters and include irish crew neck sweaters, Irish roll collar sweaters, Irish v-neck sweaters, Irish hooded sweaters, Irish zipped cardigans, Irish wraps and ponchos and much more", declares Michael's wife, Geraldine. "Most Americans will not find our garments anywhere else — unless they travel to our store here in Ireland."
