Fisherman Out of Ireland Knitwear: About the shoot 

This shoot was over a few days around Donegal, where the knitwear is made along the northern Wild Atlantic Way. It was in December so it was windy and wild and we didn’t know it at the time but Storm Desmond was already coming our way. Below are a few out-take shots showing how wild the weather was.  Above are some of the finished images and pages of the lookbook for 2016.

A little info from Fisherman out of Ireland about their brand and philosophy

As Irish brands go, Fisherman Out of Ireland is right up there with Barry’s Tea and Kerrygold. Our knitwear label was founded in 1991 by the Blarney Woollen Mills company which is an Irish owned family busines. Fisherman is managed by Dubliner Des Daly, also referred to as our ‘Captain’, he has lived all his working life in Donegal working in the knitwear industry.

We are a crew of 22 loyal, local people. The average length of employment a staff member has worked with us is 20 years so you can’t pull the wool over our eyes. We have many years of valuable experience making quality knitwear.

We might be situated on the edge of Europe in the middle of ‘nowhere’ but we export 70% of everything we make to the four corners of the globe.

It is perhaps the fabric, and its incredible quality, that makes Fisherman Out of Ireland really special. We work with luxury yarns that are 100% natural, spun by Donegal Yarns, located beside us in Kilcar. Yarns such as merino wool, cashmere, mohair, alpaca, all produced in new and beautiful colours every season. With our simple yet intent focus on quality, our knits exude high-end luxury and guarantee comfortable and easy wear for years to come. All the beauty of the inspirational Donegal landscape wrapped around you in warm, natural style
