Handknitted Charcoal Merino Wool Cardigan with Embroidered Cherry Motifs

The Ernestine cardigan in Charcoal is a handknitted charcoal merino wool cardigan inspired by Alpine heritage knitwear and traditional folkloric embroidery.

Handcrafted slowly by skilled artisans, Ernestine features sculptural bobble textures across the shoulders and delicate hand-embroidered cherry motifs that stand out vividly against the deep charcoal wool. The rich contrast between dark knit and vibrant embroidery brings a playful yet refined character to the piece.

Knitted from soft, breathable merino wool, the cardigan offers natural warmth while remaining lightweight and comfortable. The softly structured silhouette makes the charcoal Ernestine cardigan easy to style with denim, dresses, or winter tailoring — a distinctive knit designed to be worn for years and cherished as a wardrobe heirloom.

Craftsmanship

Each Ernestine cardigan is handknitted using techniques inspired by traditional Alpine knitwear craftsmanship.

The textured bobble knit across the shoulders creates a dimensional surface, while the hand-embroidered cherries add colour and narrative inspired by vintage European folk garments.

Because every embroidery detail is applied individually, each Ernestine cardigan carries its own subtle uniqueness.
