About Irish Wool

Cushendale is one of only two remaining woollen mills in Ireland traditionally crafting exceptionally rare textiles using Irish wool. The locally sourced fleece is from the protected 'Galway' sheep and is dyed, carded, spun and woven at our historic mill, creating a range of truly unique Irish textiles of authentic composition, provenance and craftsmanship. It is a great privilege and joy to continue to work with indigenous Irish wool, from fleece to fabric.

About Cushendale

Six generations of the Cushen family have devoted themselves to crafting superior quality textiles in the small town of Graiguenamanagh from the 18th century to the present day. This is a remarkable story of one family’s vocation to woollen textile manufacturing, a valuable and fully sustainable natural resource. Today Philip Cushen and his daughter Miriam carry the torch of this incredible story.
