Stay Warm and Stylish in Our Wool Sweaters for Women

Wool is a staple in any wardrobe. It naturally insulates, regulates body temperature, and resists odor. It’s wonderful for day-to-day wear in cooler seasons, but a really high-quality sweater keeps you warm without overheating, wicks away moisture, and holds its shape over time.

It’s breathable, durable, and built to last longer than most synthetic alternatives - but that’s not all. Wool also has a depth and texture you won’t get from other fabrics. It drapes beautifully, adds character to neutral outfits, and pairs well with jeans, skirts, or coats.

Of course, not all wool sweaters for women are created equal. Some use lower-grade fibers or synthetic blends that compromise comfort, shape, and longevity. Don’t settle for anything less than the best, 100% wool sweaters at Aran Sweater Market.

What Separates Our Women’s Wool Sweaters From the Rest?

You never have to second-guess your purchase here at Aran Sweater Market. Our Irish wool sweaters are the #1 choice in the world.

These handcrafted garments reflect generations of Irish knitting tradition. Each piece is knit in Ireland, often on or near the Aran Islands, where the heritage of wool craftsmanship runs deep. We use 100% natural wool, most commonly Merino, for its fine fibres, softness, and temperature-regulating properties.

Unlike commercially manufactured wool sweaters for women, ours are fully natural and fully authentic. You’ll find traditional Aran stitch patterns (like the Cable for strength or the Honeycomb for hard work) woven into each garment. No printed designs or machine shortcuts.

You don’t have to just take our word for it, either. Every sweater comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, confirming it was made in Ireland to exacting standards. Our sweaters also hold their shape wear after wear since the material is naturally elastic, breathable, and resistant to wear!

From our women’s styles to our wool sweaters for men, expect top-notch craftsmanship every time you shop at Aran Sweater Market. Shop now and upgrade your wardrobe with a layer you’ll depend on for seasons to come!

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s better, wool or cashmere?

Wool and cashmere each have strengths. Cashmere is softer and lighter, but it’s also more delicate. Wool (especially merino) is more durable, structured, and insulated. It’s the more versatile material.

What is the warmest type of wool sweater?

The warmest wool sweaters are made from thick, tightly spun yarns using insulating patterns like those found in traditional Aran sweaters. Merino wool is especially warm while still breathable.

What is the highest grade of wool for a sweater?

Once again, you can’t beat merino wool. It has an extremely low micron count (usually under 18 microns) so it feels soft against the skin while still providing all the natural benefits of wool.

How do I wash a wool sweater?

Hand wash in cold water using a wool-safe detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water (do not wring), then lay flat to dry. Always avoid hot water, bleach, and tumble drying, as they can shrink or distort the wool.
