ADULT KNIT WOOL SWEATERS
There are three major ways to tell the difference between a "hand-
knitted" and a "hand-loomed" Irish sheep's wool Aran sweater: detail,
weight and color. Hand knitted Irish sweaters cost nearly twice as
much as a hand loomed Irish sweater.
Detail: Patterns and designs vary from sweater to sweater. Hand
knitted Irish sheep's wool sweaters are more unique and contain more
detail because some patterns, like the "Blackberry," can not be created
on a loom.
Color: Authentic Irish sheep's wool hand knitted Aran sweaters only
come in a few colors – Bainin (untreated white wool from the sheep)
and colored wools that come from “black sheep”. Rarely does the black
wool of a black sheep look black. Instead, it is heather gray, gray, or
brown. Wool sweaters that are jet black aren’t from the wool of natural
black sheep but rather the wool has had some of the oil stripped from
it so that the wool can absorb the dye.
