Our Know-How

Knits Crafted From Time, Heritage, and Human Hands

Time is a precious gift — and so is anything made with care and attention.
At Michaela Buerger, every knit carries the quiet rhythm of the hands that made it, and the stories of Alpine women who passed their craft down through generations.

Rooted in the traditions of Austria’s mountain villages, our designs reinterpret age-old knitting techniques — bobbles, cables, crochet, and embroidery — for the pace of today’s world. Each piece becomes a bridge between past and present: a gesture of continuity, of care, of something beautifully human in an age of fast fashion.

We work closely with women artisans in rural communities who handknit every garment with patience and intention. Their skill sustains not only a heritage of craftsmanship but also livelihoods built on dignity and artistry.

Made in limited quantities or to order, our pieces celebrate slow fashion — no waste, no overproduction, just the enduring beauty of work done well. From the softness of natural wool to the warmth of a hand-finished stitch, each knit is designed to be cherished for years to come.

Michaela Buerger invites you into a gentle world where time, tradition, and tenderness intertwine — a world of handknits that come to life in your hands.
