Ladies Supersoft Merino Trellis and Cable Louisburgh Cardigan

■ Made in Ireland by Aran Woollen Mills, a top knits producer since 1965
■ A wide range of colors makes this an instant favorite for anyone, no matter their style
■ The asymmetrical opening and three-button closure adds a modern flair to the classic knit styles

This modern Irish cardigan is a beautiful example of classic Aran knit patterns applied to a contemporary shape. With the stand-up collar and contrasting three-button closure at the shoulder, this sweater will keep you warm and cosy as the temperature drops. The cross over front evokes both a traditional Aran wrap and a biker jacket and is designed to give your core a bit of extra protection from the elements. The knit patterns on this beautiful cardigan are inherited from the first ever Aran sweaters knitted to keep fishermen comfortable and warm on their long Atlantic expeditions, with the cables themselves signifying their ropes and representing the promise of a good catch and good fortune. A central panel of several single cables gives way to intricate chunky double cables on the sides and sleeves, making for a stunning design. Knitted from 100% Merino wool, this sweater is exceptionally warm and super soft to the touch. It is available in Classic Aran white, a darker Toasted Oat, modern Teal, and a deep Slate Grey. Hand wash in lukewarm water using a mild detergent for best results and to avoid damaging the wool fibers. Reshape and lay flat to dry.
