Irish Knit Wool

This Ladies Wool Scarf from Irish knitwear company Saol is a beautiful and subtle way to show off your Irish pride. Knit from 100% Merino wool, the scarf is remarkably soft to the touch and elegantly highlights the depth of the detailed knit patterns. These patterns of interwoven diamond, cable, and lace knitting date back over a century and were first developed for use in working Irish fishermen’s sweaters to give an extra layer of warmth while they rowed out on to the Atlantic. Today, they are renowned for their complexity and beauty, while still remaining highly functional by trapping the heat generated from the body and keeping out the cold air on the outside. This extra long scarf is the perfect gift for a lover of Ireland and Irish history.
