STRIPED HAND WOVEN FABRIC BURKINA FASO
€37.50
Description
This medium-weight, 100% cotton fabric features yellow and grey melange stripes, handwoven in Burkina Faso in collaboration with the Zoodo Association. Each strip measures just 29 centimeters in width, reflecting the traditional narrow-width weaving technique that is central to Burkinabé culture. With a rough, coarse texture, this fabric showcases the craftsmanship of local artisans and is ideal for creating garments like pagnes (wrap skirts) and boubous (loose-fitting robes). Beyond its unique aesthetic, this fabric supports the Zoodo Association’s initiative to train women in these traditional weaving methods, preserving cultural heritage while providing sustainable incomes. The fabric’s production also ensures that the children of these women, particularly daughters, have the opportunity to pursue education. Choosing this fabric allows you to incorporate a meaningful cultural legacy into your designs while supporting a community project with lasting impact.
