Our Story

Before there was a brand, there was one man in his garage in Dublin knitting sweaters to keep his family warm.

Knitting is in our blood

Before there was a brand, there was one man in his garage in Dublin knitting sweaters to keep his family warm. His name was Jim O’Sullivan and his dream was to create a legacy with a business that his family could work in for generations. When a knitwear machine came up for sale he bought it and started teaching them how to use it and IrelandsEye Knitwear was born.

A nod to the past, an eye on the future

Inspired by nature and a rich Irish knitting tradition

From supplier to brand

Proudly made in Ireland

Created with love and finished by hand

Still a close-knit family

IrelandsEye Knitwear started with six family members in 1988 and our business has involved 3 generations of the same family. We now employ a team of 50 people in our 30,000 Sq. Ft. factory as part of our extended family and continue to produce high quality knitwear that we ship to customers all over the world.
