Located in Dublin, along the East coast of Ireland, our knitwear is inspired by the textures of the Irish landscape, the contrasting colours of nature and our deep Irish roots reflected in our culture. We combine a traditional Irish knitwear heritage with our own unique twist.
The rugged Irish landscape and the deep textures of our knitwear
The beautifully rugged Irish landscape is reflected in the deep textures of our knitwear, especially in pieces like our classic Blasket Honeycomb Stitch Aran Sweater. We use a variety of traditional Aran stitches in this sweater, including the diamond and honeycomb stitches.
The colours of nature
The contrasting colours and delicate tones of nature inspire the wide selection of colourways available in each of our pieces. From vibrant colours inspired by local flora and fauna to deeper tones inspired by the darker colours found across our dramatic Irish landscape, there is an element of nature's offerings weaving it's way through each of our garments. This is evident in the different colourways available in our best-selling Clover Cardigan. The name of each colour speaks for itself.
Irish history and culture inspiring our designs
Irish history and culture seeps through our designs and inspires our collections in different ways. The silhouettes of our latest Solstice Collection are inspired by the clothing of Irish women found at markets throughout the years, while the rich and vibrant colours in this collection are inspired by the vibrant hues of fresh market produce found at these markets. Styles from this collection are named after historical market places in Ireland, including the Liberty, inspired by the Liberty market in Dublin City and the Slaney, inspired by the Slaney market in County Wexford.
a rich Irish knitting tradition combined with a unique twist
Originated in the early 1900s on the Aran islands, off the west coast of Ireland, Aran knitwear has been made in Ireland for over a hundred years. From fishermen to farmers, generations of Irish people have trusted it to shield them from the merciless sea winds that sweep onto the coast. Inspired by Ireland's rich knitting tradition, IrelandsEye Knitwear is designed to provide the same comfort and warmth, adding a modern twist with fresh designs and a contemporary look and feel, creating luxurious knitwear pieces with today's man and woman in mind.
