Collection: Donegal Galánta Cashmere Blend Collection

Quiet luxury, crafted stitch by stitch.

Galánta is the Irish word for elegant, graceful and refined.

The first in our signature 'RAESIDE' collection, this carefully designed piece celebrates the beauty of Irish wool, traditional craftsmanship and slow making. Each piece is individually knitted by Berni on a vintage Dubied machine and finished by hand, combining heritage techniques with contemporary design.

Created to last for years rather than seasons, these are garments made with intention — pieces to wear often, cherish and eventually pass on.

The Process

Hand-knitted on a vintage Dubied knitting machine in 100% Donegal Merino, Silk & Cashmere mix the Galánta Vest is a contemporary interpretation of traditional Irish knitwear.

Its relaxed silhouette is designed to be worn in multiple ways — draped off one shoulder, worn asymmetrically, layered over a dress, shirt or vest or styled simply with denim and tailoring.

The textured vertical structure draws inspiration from the rugged landscapes of Ireland's Atlantic coast, while the flecked Donegal yarn reflects the colours of stone walls, flowers, mountains and shoreline. Each garment is individually knitted and finished by hand, making every piece subtly unique.

Created in small batches using traditional knitwear techniques, the Galánta Vest embodies the values at the heart of Detta Knitwear: longevity, craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

Designed to be worn, repaired, treasured and passed on.
