Mucros Weavers

 

Inspired by the Location

Mucros Weavers are located at Muckross House, which is a focal point for visitors to Killarney National Park.  The magnificent scenery and nature of Killarney National Park, with its distinctive combinations of mountains, lakes, woods and waterfalls under ever changing skies, provide inspiration to our Master Weaver John Cahill, who designs and weaves the products we produce.  John stared as an apprentice Weaver at Muckross in 1976.

The Craft

We weave scarves using only the finest quality yarns on, believe it or not, Hattersly looms that are almost 200 years old.  The older the loom, the softer the scarf!  Because all our scarves are individually woven, they have selvedge on each side, ensuring they will last and it gives each scarf its quality finish.

Success

From small beginnings, Mucros Weavers have grown to supply hundreds of shops worldwide, in countries such as the USA, Canada, France, Germany and Japan.  Our colourful scarves, stoles, capes and rugs are made from premium yarns such as wool, mohair and alpaca.  We compliment our ranges with Ladies and Gents Tweed headwear in both traditional and contemporary styles.  In recent times, we have introduced Ladies Capes and Gents Waistcoats in tweeds to match this headwear.
