Shipping calculated at checkout
This Aran cardigan is undoubtedly one of the best garments to help you add femininity and style to your casual outfits. Made from the finest and purest merino wool, the cardigan is guaranteed to keep you warm when it gets cold.
Its stunning red colour perfectly highlights the detail of the Irish stitching patterns giving it a sophisticated look. Furthermore, you can wear it with skinny jeans and a white t-shirt and complete the look with one of our merino wool scarves.
The best thing about this cardigan is the fact that it is very easy to wear, thanks to the front zip. The front pockets also provide enough room for carrying your essential items like your phone, making it convenient to wear when moving around.
If you want something durable, this cardigan is your best choice. Thanks to the spring-like properties of wool, it can stretch without losing shape when you wear or wash it. Other fascinating features include:
The cardigan comes in XS and XL sizes to choose from.
Wool is soft to the touch, making it suitable for people with irritable skin.
The odour-repelling properties of wool will help you stay fresh all day long.
The collar provides extra layering to keep your neck comfortable and shielded.
Wool doesn’t get dirty easily, meaning you don’t need to wash the cardigan every time.
Care Guide
While our sweaters are a great choice, because they are warm and durable, proper care should be always taken to protect your garment. We recommend all of our sweaters and wool garments are gently hand washed with a mild wool detergent, reshaped by hand and dried flat. If soaked for too long, the wool may shrink and become hard.
Alternatively, most of our sweaters can also be dry cleaned but always check the care label first. Under no circumstances should you machine wash or tumble dry your sweater or any other wool product. Remember, when you give your sweater great care, it will last you for a long time.

A Little Bit About Us
The Sweater Shop is a family-run business that was established in 1986 by Dom Byrne and his sister Breege. Now in its second generation, the company is run by Dom’s son Paul and daughter Laura, alongside their sister-in-laws Kate and Eileen Louise, and cousin Alva, who manages the Galway locations.
The Sweater Shop remains a true family affair, built on a strong sense of heritage and deep-rooted family values. When asked by a journalist from The Irish Times in 1986 what made his shop so special, Dom proudly said: "quality, value and selection" – and that still holds true today. The large selection of superb quality Irish Aran knitwear at reasonable prices quickly became a favourite among both locals and visitors. As a result, the business expanded to include outlets around the country including Dublin, Kilkenny, and Galway City. The flagship store on Nassau Street in Dublin, located directly across from Trinity College, continues to be a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the heart of the city.
From timeless classics to modern twists on traditional patterns, there’s something for everyone in our collection — come and discover your next favourite piece instore or online.
