Thank you!
Thoroughly enjoy your posts on Ireland’s history, no matter the subject!
Hope you all have a most happy and blessed Christmas season.
I always love your blogs. They never fail to be interesting & entertaining.
I can’t seem to come home from Ireland without a new Aran sweater & in New York they are often needed. (I’m wearing one right now) Also I play the tin whistle so this blog was special.

After my trip to Ireland in 2006 I bought everyone in my family an Aran sweater. The only problem? It rarely gets cold enough in California to wear it. My mom absolutely loves the diamond claddagh I bought her!
I really enjoy these posts, and I hope to resume my study of the Irish language soon. I’m curious about this post on clothing, as it seems to be entirely about traditional Irish clothing for men. What is traditional Irish clothing for women?
Fascinating piece! Thanks for putting this together!
Hi Sean,
