    Pre-order now. Your jumper will be sent to you in early December.

    Our first knitwear, and our own take on the Aran jumper. It has all the cables and texture you would hope for, knitted in a linen and cotton yarn, so it carries the weight of an Aran but breathes like linen.

    A wide collar falls open over the shoulders, its edge finished by hand in crochet by our team in Belfast. The sleeves are full and gather into ribbed cuffs, and the body sits loose before it is ribbed at the bottom, drawing it gently in.

    One size, made to fit UK 6 to 18.

    Available to pre-order now, and sent to you in early December.

    One size, made to fit UK 6 to 18. It is cut generously, to sit loose through the body and sleeves and draw in at the hem.

    These are garment measurements in inches, not body measurements. As this is knitwear, allow an inch either way.

    Width 27"
    Shoulder to Hem 22"
    Shoulder 9.5"
    Sleeve Length 18"

     

    As the jumper is knitted rather than cut and sewn for you, we are not able to offer alterations on this piece.

    Please get in touch if you have any questions about sizing.

    This Kindred of Ireland piece is knitted in a 60% linen, 40% cotton yarn, with a crochet edge to the collar. Treated gently, it will soften with every wear.

    Care Instructions:  Hand wash cool, or dry clean. Press the water out gently rather than wringing, then dry flat, easing it back into shape. Store it folded, never on a hanger, so the knit keeps its shape. If needed, steam or press on the reverse with a cool iron, avoiding the crochet edge.

    Pre-order. This jumper is available to pre-order, and will be sent to you in early December. We will email you as soon as it is on its way.

    If you order other pieces at the same time, we will send those as usual and your jumper will follow in December.

    Delivery is £6, and free on orders over £250.

    No customs charges for any of our pieces if based in the EU.

    Our usual returns policy applies once your jumper arrives.

    An Aran, in linen

    The Kindred Aran jumper worn with a linen skirt on open moorland

    Years in the making

    We have wanted to make an Aran jumper for as long as there has been a Kindred. Linen has none of the give of wool, and a cable needs give to hold its twist, so finding a yarn that would do it took time.

    Finding the right knitters took longer: a small family business here in Ireland, who understood what we were after within about ten minutes of us trying to explain it.

    So it has everything you would want from an Aran, the cables and the weight across the shoulders, but it breathes.

    An Aran, made our own

    A wide collar with a crochet edge, cables through the body, and sleeves that fill with air before they meet the cuff.

      The collar

      Edged in crochet, by hand, in Belfast.

    • Cables running down the front of the Kindred Aran jumper

      The cables

      Down the front, and over the shoulders.

    • The full sleeve and ribbed cuff of the Kindred Aran jumper

      The sleeve

      Full, and gathered into a ribbed cuff.

    “I wanted it to feel like it had always been in the family.”

    “The cables and the weight you know, but softer, lighter and a little romantic. The collar was the part I kept coming back to, and edging it in crochet was the moment it became ours.”
