Brilliant poppy-red hand-knit Trachten cardigan with beautifully textured stitching and appliqué Edelweiss flowers in thick wool yarn — two smaller blooms at the front and one large motif at the back. Features subtle puff shoulders, a fitted cropped cut, and traditional pewter-style buttons. Finished with a dark green cord threaded through the hem and a charming felt “little Tyrolean hat” brooch pinned at the chest. A vivid, joyous Alpine piece likely dating from the 1970s, radiating the folk revival and handmade spirit of the era.
