What a great day the Funky team had today. Donal & myself had the pleasure of having a cup of coffee with One Direction's Niall Horan. His dad btw makes a really good cup of coffee! Niall's a really cool kid, had loads of time for us & we can see why he's adored by so many female fans around the world! He got a selection of jumpers and was loving the Rudolph & Christmas tree with lights jumper. He had left his other Funky Christmas Jumpers in London and needed one for going out with his pals for the next couple of nights so we made sure to get his jumpers to him as soon as possible.
We are delighted to have kitted out himself and Harry Styles over the past week and its the best Christmas Present ever for the Funky Team.

Harry Styles from the World's most popular boyband, One Direction, uploaded a photo of himself wearing a Funky Christmas Jumper. He is pictured wearing the classic Rudolph the Ryandeer and the newly famous Elf Jumper which was auctioned for €10,000 two weeks ago for the St. Vincent de Paul Society. His lady friend is pictured wearing our Chritsmas tree with lights jumper and we must say they look great on both of them!
This is unbelievable news and we're so delighted at Funky HQ to see Harry rock out a Funky Christmas Jumper. Within 50 minutes of posting the picture on his twitter account there were nearly 10,000 Retweets and also had over 50,000 Loves on his Instagram page. Go Harry!!

Tubridy in our Elf Jumper
Funky Christmas Jumpers are delighted to see our hero Ryan Tubridy in a Funky Christmas Jumper for the 3rd year running. It was a very nerve wrecking week for us not knowing if he would wear one of our jumpers on the 2012 Late Late Toy Show
In 2010 he wore the now infamous Rudolph The Ryandeer jumper and last year he wore the Skiing Snowman jumper. The elf was a bit of a surprise to us this year but it looked great on him while presenting a fantastic 2012 Toy Show. We are going to have to get him out for a few pints in the elf jumper!
The Elf jumper had been very popular prior to Ryan wearing it but sales have instantly rocketed and we reckon by monday all our Elf jumpers will be sold out so if you want one get into our store at 60 South William St or order online at funkychristmasjumpers.com !
Adrienne has told us that she will be packing our Funky Fair Isle Christmas Cardigan in her suit case for The Miss Universe Pageant in Las Vegas in the coming week. We think she looks amazing and wish her all the luck in the world. Go Adrienne!!
One Direction to wear Funky Christmas Jumpers?
A few weeks ago we got in contact with the One Direction Stylist and they were looking for some Christmas Jumpers for the boys. Well there's no better than place than Funky Christmas Jumpers for some novelty fun Christmas Jumpers! So we sent them over the full collection of jumpers and a few days later we got word from them that the lads loved the jumpers. We are still waiting on more info from them on whether they will be wearing the jumpers in a music video but keep an eye out in the papers as once December hits they might be spotted in our jumpers.
Its getting close to the 2012 Late Late Toy Show so we felt it was time to send in some jumpers to Mr. Ryan Tubridy along with a gift for him. He put up some pictures on his facebook page for his fans to review and they was good and bad feedback!! The Elf costume jumper on him can be seen below He encouraged fans to vote on their favourite jumper.

It was a cold, wintery night in mid-December 2007. Ciaran was on his way to a Christmas Jumper party without the obligatory Christmas Jumper. He Had tried in vain to buy one, steal one and knit one and all to no avail. It seemed that the Christmas Jumper was a relic of the past, that we had lost our sense of christmas spirit, that every granny had packed away her knitting needles. Ciaran and his good pal Fabio had other ideas however, and in that moment Funky Christmas Jumpers was born...
