This gorgeous shawl is one of the latest additions to the knitters' repertoire. Knitters have a lot to learn, so they can become more skilled each year they knit with Coffee Beanies. We are impressed with how professional they are and how much they love learning new skills. Now they can also hand-dye the yarn, so the products exude even more designer look and are nice enough to arm with the biggies in the fashion world.
Imagine if all the clothes we bought were slowfashion. Made without machines and with green wool and even by people in the poorest countries in the world.
A hand-knitted shawl is self-help
For the shawl to be included in our range, it must meet certain requirements:
- there are many "labour-hours" in the product which gives the woman a lot of work.
- there is new learning, so the woman can become more skilled and start selling things for the home market herself.
- it's a fairly easy recipe so we can invite more new women on board for a job.
- will it disturb the balance at home unnecessarily or can she continue to look after her children and do field work in the mornings.
