Since I kissed the ole' Blarney Stone last time I went to Ireland with my daughter, this time I took the time to explore the adjacent woolen shop more. They have a fantastic display and demonstration experience upstairs. At several of the places we visited they talked about the different knitted stitches and what they symbolize. They had a nice display and explanations here so I took pictures of them. I hope you can read them! If not, click on the picture and try zooming in.
One of the places we visited still sells hand knitted sweaters - I'll share some pictures of that place too, but most of the Irish woolen sweaters are knitted by machine now.
So fun and interesting!! ☘️🇨🇮
