Fascinating history of the birth of the Aran sweater.,
By Josephine Melkun (Merrick, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Aran Sweater (Hardcover)
Fascinating!! I was surprised to learn that the intricate patterns were originally devised by the Aran fishermen. It is a great coffee table book and a great tag-along gift to my homemade Aran sweaters. It is an interesting way to pass on the Aran history to my children and grandchildren.

Cute little book, packed with information,
By Blandyna Williams - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Aran Sweater (Hardcover)
This is a cute little book, with plenty of information on the history of Aran sweaters for its size. An easy read, with colored lithographic-type illustrations showing how famailiar objects of landscape, work and daily life were interpreted into the Aran stitches. There is even a unisex sweater pattern.
