"Illam" Hand-Knitted Nepal Sweater

The "Illam" combines classic winter patterns with genuine Nepalese craftsmanship. Every sweater is knitted stitch by stitch by hand in Nepal – authentic, warm and full of character.

This sweater is available in size L and has a regular to relaxed fit – the pure wool adapts naturally.

Material & Warmth

The "Illam" is made from pure Nepalese sheep wool. It provides reliable winter warmth, a pleasant body climate, a robust, durable structure and natural breathability. Perfect for cold days, outdoor moments and cosy hours indoors.

Design & Pattern

Deep red with cream-white patterns: a large diamond and zigzag border across the chest and back, finely scattered dots like falling snow, and fine stripes on the sleeves and hem. The look is festive, classic and timeless. Since every piece is freely hand-knitted, every "Illam" is truly one of a kind.

Fit & Feel

Relaxed, slightly voluminous fit
Round neckline with red ribbed trim
Firm red ribbed cuffs and hem
Thick, robust knit for cold days

Fair & Social

Every purchase supports Nepalese women's cooperatives, fair wages and safe jobs, as well as the passing on of traditional knitting techniques. Warm, handmade and with a traditional pattern – the "Illam" is a sweater for life.
