🧑‍🤝‍🧑 About the Artisans

The Addis Ababa weaving group behind this scarf is rooted in Ethiopia's ancient textile traditions. Hand-spinning — passed from mother to daughter — and hand-weaving — passed from father to son — have shaped Ethiopian culture for centuries. Today, this community continues those traditions while creating sustainable income for artisans and spinners across the region. A weaver can produce one to three scarves a day depending on the intricacy of the pattern. When you choose this scarf, you're part of keeping that tradition alive.
