Shuttle Knit

Shuttle Knit is an Irish social enterprise that crafts high-quality, handmade knitwear.  

They design, hand craft, and sell beautiful Irish knitwear online, at markets and via partner retailers throughout Ireland.

Shuttle Knit began as a partnership between the Traveller and settled communities, with the mission to improve quality of life for Traveller Women and their families through social enterprise.

Shuttle Knit aims to bring inclusion into the labour market through social enterprise. They provide jobs and training to 11 women who are part of the local Travelling Community in Wicklow. The impact is that their staff have a secure income, a sense of purpose and learn a skill. They are empowered and become role models in their own community and contribute to the local economy.
