A wider Irish craft and design shop
The shop’s purpose extends beyond clothing: its collections include jewellery, ceramics and glass, prints, books, children’s pieces and gifts, alongside textiles and corporate gifting. It suits browsing across makers or choosing a smaller design gift rather than assuming a full specialist sweater range.

Ekotree knitted accessories
The current Ekotree collection includes cashmere hats, snoods, scarves and handwarmers, plus a merino snood. The shop describes Ekotree’s pieces as crafted and finished in Doolin, County Clare, using a range of yarns. Composition belongs to each item; Irish studio making does not establish Irish-grown fibre. Online availability and Drury Street stock are separate.
