History of the Aran Fisherman Sweater:
Back in the 1950s on the Aran Islands of Ireland, many of the men were fishermen by trade and, out of necessity to combat the cold and tough conditions of the sea, the women handmade their husbands Aran sweaters to keep them warm, hence the name fisherman sweaters we're all familiar with today.
