The Project

Handmade in Albania directly benefits the women who produce the products sold here.  We collect no commission but simply act as the connecting point between the knitters and you, donating our time in photography, inventory curation, promotion and access to markets they would otherwise have no access to.

We have seen the women use the funds they generate from this seasonal project to provide for their family’s emergency medical needs, pay for higher utility bills in the cold winter months, pay off debts, and furnish their homes with comforts like an indoor kitchen and warm rugs on cement floors.

Through purchases like yours, the women are able to provide for their families by doing work in the margins of their day.  They learn to produce what the market requests, and their skills and creativity are affirmed when one of their products is purchased.

We appreciate your business and hope you will share this project with someone you know!
