Tree of Bones
A goth Christmas tree jumper, knitted, not printed: Christmas trees built from stacked bone-white skulls, each with a square trunk and a blood-red star on top, between a row of single skulls and small red crosses, all the way round the body and down both sleeves. KNITFERATU is knitted across the upper back.
In 80% wool, the colours are confirmed by email before we knit.

Knitted, not printed
The motif is jacquard: bone-white and coloured yarns carried through the black acrylic or wool blend row by row on an industrial flat-bed machine. There is no ink, no transfer and no embroidery on top. Pattern and garment are the same object, so nothing can crack or peel.
Fabric and fit
Two yarns, two prices: 100% acrylic, or 80% wool and 20% polyamide, the warmer of the two; in 80% wool, the colours are confirmed by email before we knit. A finer yarn is possible on request, priced separately. Relaxed unisex fit, true to size, S to 2XL: the standard measurements are in the table next to the sizes. Between sizes, take the bigger one.
Made to order
Your piece is knitted after you order it: the chart goes on the machine, the yarn is mounted, then it is linked, hand-finished and steamed. Two to three weeks, plus shipping. No dead stock, no warehouse.
Shipping and returns
Free tracked shipping worldwide. EU 2 to 5 working days after dispatch, UK, US and the rest of the world 5 to 10. Fourteen days to change your mind, and the size exchange is free.
A Christmas tree, built the way the crypt would build one: six skulls stacked into a pyramid, a square trunk underneath and a blood-red star on top. Rows of these trees alternate with a line of single skulls and small red crosses, banded across black acrylic or wool blend like any honest Christmas jumper.
The bands run all the way round: front, back and both sleeves carry the same pattern, and every motif on the body is whole, none of them cut in half at the side seams. Across the upper back, between the collar and the first band, KNITFERATU is knitted into the fabric in blackletter.
Relaxed unisex crew-neck with ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, S to 2XL. The colours are carried through the knit row by row, so the motif is the fabric: there is nothing to crack, peel or fade after the first December.
Order by early December: every piece is knitted to order in our Italian atelier with a two to three week lead time, so earlier is safer. Free tracked shipping worldwide.
The photos on this page are AI renders made from the knitting file, so the pattern you see is the one the machine knits.
Is the motif printed or knitted?
Knitted. It is jacquard: the bone-white and blood-red yarns are carried through the black acrylic or wool blend row by row on an industrial flat-bed machine, so the motif is the fabric. There is no ink, no transfer and no embroidery, and therefore nothing that can crack or peel.
Is the KNITFERATU lettering on the back knitted too?
Yes. It is part of the same jacquard, knitted across the upper back in the bone-white yarn of the motifs. It is not a patch and not a print.
Which size should I take?
Relaxed unisex fit, true to size, S to 2XL. The standard measurements in centimetres are in the table next to the sizes: check them before you order. Between two sizes, take the bigger one, and if you still call it wrong the size exchange is free.
How long until it arrives?
Your piece is knitted after you order it: two to three weeks in the atelier, then free tracked shipping worldwide. EU 2 to 5 working days after dispatch, UK, US and the rest of the world 5 to 10.
