Aran sweater presentation party 2024

NEWS | 2024/01/30

​​The "Aran Sweater Unveiling Party 2024" will be held from March 15th to March 21st this coming spring.

This year's knitwear reflects the changes in nature and the scenery the designer witnessed during her travels to the Baltic States and Scandinavia last fall.

A cloudy sky blue with light shining through, the beige of an 18th century building, the moss green of coniferous trees heading into autumn, and the quiet indigo of the Baltic Sea at night.

Armed with a sample book of Irish wool Donegal Yarns, I created this year's color palette while walking around town and standing in the woods. Grains called NEP are mixed into the yarn, allowing you to discover the true colors of nature that cannot be described with just one color.

​​We have prepared a new motif for the original "Ceramic Button". Adorable creatures such as horses and sheep drawn by wood carvers. You can choose the perfect combination for your knitwear from a variety of adorable buttons in different shapes and colors.

As last year, we chose ``Moriyama Teiaito'' as the venue. A space inside the Moriyama residence, which is known as a famous architectural masterpiece. Gentle sunlight streams in through the large windows into the room, where you can enjoy a peaceful lifestyle. I envisioned it being in such a place that I could come across a sweater and wear it through the sleeves. In addition to accepting orders, we will also exhibit the process of making knits and pieces of our journey.

Additionally, as a special event, on March 20th, a national holiday, we will hold a reading by actor Izumi Aoyagi. (Updated on 2/26: Fully booked)

​​It's like a talisman, like a treasure, enveloping the wearer's body and soul. We are preparing to deliver such a first item. We look forward to seeing you on a nice spring day.
