Aran Sweaters for the Irish

[McMurdo]

You guys should move up to Canada if you want weather cold enough for an Arran Sweater and a kilt.



As far as patterns and Clans I don't really buy it either.

The patterns definitely aren't traditional. I think there are even a couple threads on here saying as much. But McMurdo, might I ask where you purchased that sweater. It looks great!

I got it through Hector Russell they have a shop here in Toronto, and they were having a sale on there were about 4 colours, I chose the natural, however, I may end up getting the other 3 Navy Blue, Green, and Grey.

I have a blue one very similar to yours though not, for once, from HR.

Another thing from your photo, I've NEVER seen a sporran with a tartan lid to it! I think my better half would be very interested in one for herself.

Cheers

The Sporran comes from Thorfinn Custom Sporrans the tartan flaps are removable I have 4 tartan flaps and a leather flap, it allows me to wear the sporran with a multitude of different tartans.

Wow, it's strange but I had that same link bookmarked from about three years ago with a note that they offered 6 different patterns by Irish region.

Now they seem to have expanded the list and named them.

And no, the Irish do not go by clans, but by county.
