Wrap your home in Ireland's heritage with our Soft Merino Wool Irish Blanket with Sheep! The throw is authentically inspired by the rural life on the Aran Islands, a place surrounded by farming, fishing, nature, and timeless culture. It’s knit with traditional Aran cable, honeycomb, and basket stitches, each with its very own unique story and meaning behind it. For instance, cable and basket patterns have long represented the ropes and baskets of the fishermen, suggesting the idea of strength and steadiness. The honeycomb is a tribute to the beekeeping industry that was prolific on the islands, all while signifying the sweet rewards that come after hard work. We offer a wide range of many other Aran throws with varied stitches, so if you like this one, make sure to check out our Irish Throws & Blankets collection. The trim of this Irish blanket features cute sheep that are full of charm and personality! No wonder they’re considered Ireland’s unofficial emblems.
The throw is made of ethically sourced 100% Merino wool, a fully organic yarn praised for its unmatched softness, high breathability, durability, and stain and moisture resistance. Plus, it’s heat insulating, meaning it offers just the right amount of warmth when you need it the most- it adjusts to your natural body temperature. It’s sized 60’’ in length and 39’’ in width, offering a multitude of purposes: a cozy bed throw, a culturally-inspired centerpiece for your living room, or a reliable picnic blanket. The possibilities are endless!
