About Us
The Authentic Irish Aran Knitwear Company
"Where tradition meets contemporary"
At Maggie's Wheel our Aran products are hand-crafted by experienced homeworkers
in Counties Tyrone and Londonderry thus ensuring a high quality
luxury product which you will enjoy wearing for years to come.
The surrounding verdant Irish countryside and the traditional
values of the Irish knitting genre greatly influence our designs.
Owner of the business, Maggie Ferguson is a registered member
of the Crafts Council of Ireland, the Knitting & Crochet Guild (UK and Ireland)
and the Crochet Guild of America. This ensures our designs are
up-to-date and our work practice equally reflect traditional and
cutting-edge fashion.
Location
Maggie's Wheel is based in the foothills of the Sperrin mountains.
The Sperrins are the largest mountain range in the north of Ireland
encompassing the counties of Tyrone and Londonderry. The area
is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty with its many
forests & rivers stretching from the shoreline of Lough Neagh
to southern County Londonderry. For many hundreds of years its
spectacular scenery has been the inspiration for many artists,
poets and playwrights.
