Aran Crafts

In 1856, Kate O'Shea was the first Irish craftswoman to commercially market her knitwear. A century later, her granddaughter recognized the demand for high-quality woolens, and she started West End Knitwear in honor of her grandmother's vision.

Molly's two sons John and Paul have kept the family tradition alive to this day, and they continue to oversee a bustling workforce for what has become the largest producer of knitwear in Ireland. Focusing on Merino wool, cashmere, cotton & linen, the company is committed to using only the highest-quality natural fibers in all of their clothing and accessories.
