These stitches while appealing to the common eye hold deep symbolism to the inhabitants of the remote islands off the West coast of Galway Bay in Ireland. The distinct Aran honeycomb stitch is symbolic of a bee and represents good luck. The Aran trellis stitch on the other hand is symbolic of the stone walls that are iconic of the great Aran island landscape. According to Aran tradition, this sweater was originally woven for fishermen as a protective charm, in their quest out at sea battling the waves of the Atlantic Ocean with the hope that they would safely return back home to their families. To date, communities located at the Aran islands still practice their traditional Irish way of lifestyle, and it is due to this reason that their garments are still prevalent.
The Aran sweaters were first crafted and worn by the inhabitants of the remote Aran Islands in Ireland. Due to their isolated nature, these islands offered little sustenance in the form of fishing and farming for its residents. The residents of these stony rugged islands needed the warmth offered by these traditional sweaters to protect them from the cold Atlantic winds blowing from the west. Their distinct knitting style was developed as a way of offering insulation compared to flat sweaters. Air gets trapped in its raised patterns warming up the body. Since then, these stiches have become exemplary to Aran knitwear garments.
