The highlight of this scarf is the different colors. While one side of the scarf features a fine stripe pattern in blue and natural, the other side is in green and natural. A wider contrasting stripe forms the end of each scarf. The smooth knitted fabric made from pure wool has a soft feel and the wool used comes from certified organic animal husbandry.

Behind the walls of McKernan Woollen Mills in Tuamgraney in County Clare, Ireland, Anke and Eugene McKernan have been producing fine woven and knitted scarves from selected natural fibers since 1985 - currently with five employees. They combine the past with the present. They weave on old Hattersley looms, true classics among mechanical looms that have long since been discontinued and are therefore carefully maintained. The same applies to a 50-year-old Stoll knitting machine, to which the McKernans have added their "latest" acquisition, two computer-controlled machines. So far, so technical: what makes their goods so unique, however, is above all the deep understanding of materials, colors and patterns that comes from pure hand weaving - and the enthusiasm with which everyone in the family business is involved.
