Rathlin Knitwear
Rathlin Knitwear is a progressive craft
business based in the Gaeltacht area of southwest
Donegal.The company uses a wide range of new and traditional
types of raw material including a signature line in Donegal
tweed wool. The wool is hand-loomed into sweaters,
scarves and hats.
Their tunic style is based on the traditional fisherman’s sweater and features heritage stitching. The sweaters have a very distinctive finish thanks to the tweed wool. It is very popular with local holidaymaker and star of hit TV series Sex and The City, Sarah Jessica Parker; she belts hers at the waist. Many of the garments are hand-finished by home workers in their houses.
