The deep mauve colour gives this Fisherman Out of Ireland sweater a beautifully feminine look. It is a muted purple shade with a soft pink undertone, rich in colour without becoming bright. This gives the sweater a warm, refined appearance and makes it particularly beautiful with denim, cream, soft pink, deep purple and natural shades.

The generous roll neck makes the sweater especially cosy. Wear it high and loose around the neck for wonderful warmth, or fold it over once more for a more compact roll neck and a different look. With one small detail, you can easily vary the way you wear the sweater.

Up close, the many subtle nuances in the knit become beautifully visible. Delicate pink, purple and other coloured flecks run through the wool and give the sweater its characteristic Donegal look. This traditional Irish style is named after County Donegal and is known for its tweed-like appearance, where small coloured fibres add extra depth and a lively play of colour.

The sweater is made from 100% merino wool. Merino wool feels pleasantly soft, provides natural warmth and is comfortable to wear without feeling heavy. The wool used is also mulesing-free. Mulesing is a procedure in which skin is removed from around a sheep’s hindquarters to help prevent problems caused by fly larvae. Mulesing-free wool comes from sheep that have not undergone this procedure, making it a more animal-friendly choice.

Pair the deep mauve shade with your favourite jeans for a relaxed look, or wear the sweater with trousers or a skirt for a more feminine outfit. The distinctive purple shade and subtle coloured flecks give even a simple combination an immediate touch of something special.
