our makers

Our knitting project in Peru is an award winning sustainable project

working with young mothers & women from disadvantages neighbourhoods creating economic,

social and cultural opportunities for them.

Focusing on women empowerment, community development

and specialising in local handicrafts which have provided livelihood for women in these regions for generations. 

Our knitwear workshop in south india supports local women

by creating full time employment

and reliable training opportunities through which they are financially independent

and therefore have a more stable position in society.

This workshop is based in the same town jaggery founder Theresa grew up in.

Each jaggery knit is made by a different pair of hands

therefore there might be little imperfections.

We cherish these little imperfections and feel they are part of the unique beauty of each product.

Our items all take time to finish as they are hand knitted,

hand assembled and often have intricate crochet finishes.

All our handloom cottons & bengali linen pieces are tailored in an ethical & sustainable design & tailoring studio in bangalore, India. For these collections we use naturally dyed handwoven fabrics or left over / end of line fabrics.
