Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
An old Irish TV show called 'Hands' that highlights different crafts and arts throughout Ireland. From boat building and book binding to saddle making and tailoring.
It really highlights how much Ireland has changed in the last 40 years. Highlighting many traditional crafts have been forgotten also.
Another notable example that's more of a biopic:
Hands: Fermanagh County - 1980

Loved it as a kid. Probably one of the reasons I wanted to be a craftsman man and became a goldsmith.
Does anyone know of a site where these hand made Irish clothes can still be purchased? Possibly a store in Ireland that ships?
This is just blatantly wrong. Everyone that's ever run a sheep factory knows that wool is secreted after vigorous massage, and thats only if you control for the other principle parameters like humidity, banter and miscarriages of justice in the surrounding area.
It seems like the above video was made by the same charlatans as in https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/8w3ul4/how_the_internet_is_made/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 They're only out to mislead and create fake news. Beware.
