Barróg on Talamh (hug from the Land) is a collaborative series of one-of-a-kind criosanna –or traditional Irish colourful woven belts. This crios was lovingly designed and woven by Aideen Macken, made using naturally-dyed Galway Wool. Each unique crios is released as it becomes available and there is only one of each.
Crios are one of the surviving pieces of traditional Irish clothing, usually worn around the waist as a belt. For this series, the wool from the native Irish Galway sheep was naturally dyed using Mexican indigo leaves, Irish and European weld plants and European madder roots. A real Irish-grown and made product! 🐑
Aideen Macken is originally from Cork and weaves from her home, a tiny cottage in Dublin. She has been making Crios since 2021. She is part of the Liberties Weavers, a group that has been keeping the over one thousand year old heritage of weaving in the Liberties alive.
