VIDEO: The Aran Sweater Christmas ad will have you holding back the tears

Can’t deal

Conor Heneghan

Another emotional rollercoaster.

It’s probably the same every year and we just forget about it, but the Christmas ads served up in 2015 so far haven’t so much tugged at the heartstrings as ripped them out and wrapped them all over our emotions.

First there was the John Lewis ad, then there was the magical lottery ad from Spain and then the best/worst of the lot, the one from German supermarket Edeka that is guaranteed to have you bawling into your turkey.

It always means a little more when it’s closer to home and that’s why the latest effort from the Aran Sweater Market will have you hitching a ride on the emotional rollercoaster all over again.

Tears, the mending of a family relationship, a children’s letter, pints and more Aran jumpers than you can shake a stick at, this one has it all.

Stop chopping those damn onions!
