"The floral embroidery is hand-stitched, so each piece looks a little different – that's what makes it so special."

"Anaya" Hand-Knitted & Embroidered Nepal Cardigan

The "Anaya" is an exceptional piece of Nepalese knitwear. It combines the powerful structure of traditional Aran cable patterns with colorful, meticulous hand embroidery – a cardigan that provides warmth and is a true statement piece. Each jacket is entirely handcrafted by experienced knitters in Panauti, Banepa, and Shakhu, with great attention to detail.

The model in the product photos is 170 cm tall and wears the cardigan in size XL – the fit is regular to loose, ideal for layering and cozy looks. You can find the detailed size chart with all measurements directly with the product images.

Material & Warmth

The thick, high-quality Nepalese sheep's wool (100%) ensures reliable, natural warmth, a robust and durable structure, as well as breathable properties and a comfortably balanced body climate – without fleece, but with pure, natural wool feel. The perfect companion for autumn, winter, and cool evenings.

Design & Pattern

The "Anaya" combines two traditional craft techniques: pronounced Aran-inspired cable patterns on the sleeves and back in the style of classic fisherman's knitwear, combined with vibrant, hand-embroidered floral motifs along the button placket and shoulders. Since each motif is hand-embroidered, each piece is slightly different – genuine craftsmanship that gives the cardigan a warm, playful character.

Practical Details

• Large, round wooden buttons
• Two practical front pockets
• Classic ribbed cuffs for a good fit
• Heavy, high-quality knit

Fair & Social

With this cardigan, you support Nepalese knitters and their secure income, the preservation of traditional craftsmanship, and sustainable, fair production in small family businesses. "Anaya" is clothing with heart and meaning – ideal for everyday wear, winter, and special occasions.

As all floral motifs are entirely hand-embroidered, colors, position, and details may vary slightly. These small differences make each "Anaya" cardigan unique and give it the special charm of genuine handmade craftsmanship.
