Eddie Doherty Handwoven Tweed Pocket Shawl

Eddie Doherty Handwoven Tweed Pocket Shawl

Eddie Doherty is one of the last true Irish hand weavers and from his loom in Ardrara Donegal, Ireland he skilfully produces some wonderful tweed garments. One of those is this strikingly beautiful hand-woven tweed pocket shawl. Not only is this a beautifully hand-crafted garment but it is also wonderfully elegant on any lady. Despite it's simple appearance it is as flattering as the design is chic.

Handwoven in a gorgeous boucle tweed of pure new wool, the design is so skilfully shaped with a subtle collar that you would almost think that you were wearing a sort of sleeveless tweed jacket. Maybe the best feature is the cosy pockets on each side that keep your hands warm! This wonderfully feminine garment makes a perfect Irish gift not only for the reasons above but there are no sizes to worry about as one size fits all! Available in two colours, a rich earthy Rust and a stunning Blueberry, and at £75 (inc VAT) for a unique genuinely hand-crafted piece of Ireland - good value!
