Ladies Double Breasted Shawl Collar Coat

■ Machine washable thanks to SAOL’s new anti-shrink technology

Bring an amazingly stylish piece of Ireland into your wardrobe with our Ladies Double Breasted Shawl Collar Coat. Crafted of 100% Merino Wool, this Irish Coat is incredibly soft, breathable, and a great heat insulator. Merino Wool is one of the highest quality materials used in knitwear, as it is made from Merino sheep that are known for their very fine soft wool. Merino Wool also has great heat-regulating properties, ensuring this cardigan can be worn both during the winter and the summer. This gorgeous piece showcases traditional Aran stitching, being knit using classic Cable and Moss Stitches. The Cable Stitch is thought to resemble the Irish fishermen's ropes - it was knitted by local women for their husbands to wish them safety and good luck when going out into the sea. The moss stitch represents the carrageen moss found on the shores of the Aran islands and is a symbol of abundance, prosperity, and big harvest. This coat also displays metallic buttons detailed with embossed trinity knots. Trinity knots were often associated with the Celts’ belief in the three stages of life: life, death, and rebirth; the three worlds: spiritual, physical, and mental; the Triple Celtic Goddess: the maid, mother, and crone. This vintage design is also topped off with rib stitching at the cuffs, a unique shawl collar, and front pockets that bring an extra level of practicality.
