About McKernan

We are Eugene and Anke McKernan, an Irish/German couple based in the West of Ireland and we have been making scarves for a very long time. We operate as a family-run business and our designs are sold in select boutiques, concept stores and museum shops throughout Ireland, Europe and North America. Eugene weaver Hattersley domestic looms woven scarves Lough Derg. Coming into our 35th year of business, we are proud to be one of the most established scarf designers and manufacturers in Ireland. Woolly or silky, fine or chunky, smooth or textured, we make scarves for every occasion, and we hope that our passion and craftsmanship is visible in all of our products. When we began our handweaving company in 1985, we quickly understood that scarves would become our main focus. Having to earn a living for our growing family, we realized that scarves were one of the few handwoven textile products that would be both financially and creatively interesting. As a product, scarves have a high perceived value but for us they are also a canvas that allows us to express our artistry, love for color and appreciation of high quality textiles.Read their story
