The romantic Eribé Alpine Cardigan Romance breathes softness and warmth. The colours recall a late summer sky at sunset: powder pink, warm peach, subtle blue and soft natural tones flow together harmoniously. It is a palette that radiates tenderness without being fragile – refined, balanced and full of charm.

Around the neckline, the iconic Alpine Fair Isle pattern forms a colourful wreath that gives the cardigan its recognisable character. The hem and cuffs repeat this refined interplay of colour, keeping the whole in perfect balance. The soft beige base brings calm and allows the warm accents to stand out beautifully.

Made from 96% merino wool and 4% angora wool, this cardigan feels exceptionally soft, light and cosy. Merino wool regulates temperature and breathes naturally, while angora wool adds a subtle luxury and a velvety touch. The mother-of-pearl buttons provide an elegant, feminine finish with a delicate shine.

The name Romance does not refer to a colour, but to the atmosphere this cardigan expresses. The warm palette of powder, peach and natural tones evokes a feeling of softness and harmony. A cardigan that brings together warmth and refinement, perfect for those who love gentle shades with character and a timeless look.

* The angora wool comes from angora rabbits that are combed by hand. This painless method prevents the coat from matting and keeps the rabbit healthy.

The story behind the Eribé Alpine Cardigan
When Rosemary Eribé founded her knitwear label in the Scottish Borders in 1986, she dreamed of preserving Scotland’s centuries-old knitting heritage while breathing new life into it. She noticed that the famous Fair Isle technique was often seen as outdated and wanted to prove that this heritage could be surprisingly modern and stylish.

This is how the Alpine Cardigan was born – a design where tradition and innovation meet. Rosemary gave the classic patterns a fresh look by experimenting with vibrant colour palettes, feminine silhouettes, and a fit tailored to the everyday lives of modern women.

The Alpine is shorter in length, making it lighter and more versatile than traditional long cardigans. It combines the warmth of 100% merino wool with playful colours inspired by Scottish landscapes as well as international influences – from sunny coastlines to vivid mountain hues.

For Rosemary, the Alpine is more than a garment. It is a bridge between generations: a cardigan that honours the artisans who passed down Fair Isle patterns through the centuries, while also being a contemporary fashion piece embraced worldwide.

Today, the Eribé Alpine Cardigan has become an icon – celebrated for its rich colours, durability, and unmistakably Scottish character.
