🌍 The Makers Behind the Scarf
The Addis Ababa artisan group is rooted in Ethiopia's rich handweaving heritage. Hand spinning is traditionally passed from mother to daughter, while the art of loom weaving has been carried from father to son for generations. From spinning the cotton thread to weaving the finished fabric, every step is done entirely by hand. The group works with a network of women spinners across the community, offering supplemental income and honouring a tradition that has shaped Ethiopian culture for centuries.
A single weaver can produce one to three scarves per day depending on the complexity of the pattern — a reminder of the skill and time woven into every piece you wear.
