Winter is the damp chilly cousin of summer who comes over, drinks all your booze and leaves dirty underwear on the floor. Slogging through longest shortest days of the year can be tough, but the Irish came up with a way to knock out that chill and keep looking stylish. Layering. That's right, layering. The air pockets in wool fibers insulate and stay dry, even when they're wet, partially because sheep wool contains lanolin, a natural oil in the wool that keeps a sheeps coat from matting and also protects them from the sun. Irish wool is prized for its softness and durability, which makes Irish sweaters some of the best for keeping you warm on even the dreariest day, and the Irish definitely know dreary and damp.Ladies Moss Turtleneck Sweater Ladies Moss Turtleneck Sweater When you hear "Irish sweater" do visions of aran patterns, white wool, and fishermen come to mind?

No matter how you layer it, an Irish sweater will keep you warm and stylish.
