HAND-KNOTTED, FAIR TRADE PRODUCTS FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
“When women are poor and lack educational or economic opportunities, they often find themselves vulnerable to abuse and/or exploitation”. For these women to heal and move forward sustainably, they need a safe place to earn a living wage and have the opportunity to thrive both professionally and personally.
Knotting is an ancient art form that has been practiced in China & all over Asia for centuries. In addition to tying knots for functional purposes, knots have been used to show elegance and express blessings, which is a sentiment we are continually inspired by to this day.
The process of knotting can be quite messy as a single strand of rope is molded to become something beautiful. With patience and dedication, the knot slowly begins to come forth and eventually you’re left with a stunning product. This process so often mirrors our lives—if we’re willing to be patient and keep walking through the messiness or chaos of whatever’s going on around us, beauty will always emerge.
