Nóirón Pye was 21-years-old when she set up her handloom in the heart of Dublin and opened her workshop to customers.
Being a young woman in a typically male-dominated craft didn’t cross her mind and she learnt her skill quickly and deftly.
With an extraordinary eye for colour, she caught the attention of Dublin’s well-heeled including Louis le Brocquy who commissioned her to make a special tweed for his suits among other clothing pieces.
The crios belt was traditionally woven and worn by fishermen across Ireland, but particularly on the Aran Islands. It is woven by hand, without a loom, by simply stretching the yarn between two stools or, more traditionally, between one hand and one foot.
