mars | aran cable jumper
With every single pattern and stitch paying homage to the clans that so closely guarded them, the aran jumper remains as one of the most fascinating jumpers around.
The patterns mars carefully selected draw their roots from Celtic Art and each has a distinct meaning.
Cables for example depict a fisherman's rope, and represent a wish for a fruitful day at the mercy of the ruthless ocean.
The intricate moss stitch, created by alternating knits and purls, depict the seaweed that was used to fertilise the barren fields in hope for a good harvest.
100% wool composition means you get all the thermal and hydrophobic benefits that were required by the original Irish inventors of the wind ravished aran Islands.
Both models are wearing medium and are 5'8"

About — Mars knitwear
The Martian family have been manufacturing some of the highest quality knitwear in the UK for over 25 years. Obsessed with only delivering the highest quality products.
Design and manufacture our knitted products themselves which allows us to feed this somewhat unhealthy obsession. Never use any man made fibres in our products and prioritise sourcing everything from the yarn to the mailing boxes locally.
They want people to share our love for made in the UK products as well as keeping our carbon footprint as low as possible. Being a manufacturer means they are in the fortunate position to be able to be self sufficient and if we have the yarn we could knit just about any required order quantity.
Based in wigston, united kingdom.
