About the Irelands Eye brand
Discover the Warm World of Irelands Eye Knitwear: A Masterpiece of Traditional Craftsmanship and Family Passion
Deeply rooted in Ireland's heartwarming traditions, the story of Irelands Eye Knitwear began in the 1960s, driven by a family who shared a love of knitting and wanted to share this passion with the world. The O'Sullivan family, based in Dublin, decided to start their own knitwear business, driven by a deep-rooted commitment to craftsmanship and quality.
A Family of Knitters:
The founders, whose heritage was steeped in generations of knitters, wanted not only to continue their family traditions but also to create a place where the warmth of handmade knitwear could be shared with others. Their love of handcrafting beautiful garments became the driving force behind Irelands Eye Knitwear.
Tradition in Modern Times:
What truly sets Irelands Eye apart is its ability to seamlessly connect tradition with modernity. While building on the old Irish knitting patterns passed down through generations, the brand also embraces contemporary design and comfort. The result is a unique collection that combines the warmth of the past with the style of today.
Ethical Commitment:
The driving force behind Irelands Eye goes beyond fashion; it encompasses an ethical approach to production. By refusing to use mulesing, a controversial practice in the wool industry, the brand shows that it strives not only for aesthetics but also for responsibility toward people and animals.
Made with Love in Ireland:
Irelands Eye cherishes its local roots and proudly contributes to preserving Irish knitting traditions by keeping all production in Ireland. This not only ensures high-quality garments, but also highlights the importance of local communities and artisanal expertise.
The Different Collections of Irelands Eye:
Irelands Eye started small but has slowly grown into a brand with no fewer than seven different collections. In the well-known 'heirloom collection', you'll find the traditional knits that define the brand, such as the Trellis Sweater, Horseshoe V-Neck Sweater and Horseshoe Cardigan, made with a horseshoe knitting pattern in 8 beautiful colors. The latest collection, the 'blossom collection', is mainly inspired by spring and is characterized by cheerful, soft spring colors that will brighten your mood! Such as the Pansy V-Neck vest and the Killiney cardigan.
