Dearaim
Introducing the Dearaim jacket, a beautifully designed seamless garment that captures the essence of Irish craftsmanship. Named Dearaim, which means 'emblazon' in Irish, this stylish jacket is adorned with intricate small Celtic cables to give it a unique and eye-catching appeal. The body of the Dearaim is expertly shaped for the bust and knit in one continuous piece from the bottom to the armholes, ensuring a smooth and flattering fit. The sleeves are crafted top down using stockinette stitch, allowing the lovely cables to truly stand out. Completing the design, the jacket features a classic crew neck that is elegantly finished with an I-cord and a button band for added sophistication. Knit in the luxurious and airy Norwegian combed wool yarn, Ask, from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk, the Dearaim jacket is not only stylish but also provides warmth and comfort, making it perfect for any occasion.
