Colourful PAMOJA is a striped woven shopper made from sustainably-sourced Kenyan sisal, with horizontal pastel stripes of orange, purple and pink. With its soft leather carry handles, this is a carry-all for every occasion. Use yours as an everyday handbag with plenty room to pack for weekend breaks, shopping trips and beach days – they come in two handy sizes.

The talented women who produce these woven shoppers are led by chairlady Mbeti who set up this flourishing weaving group single-handedly. She now leads twelve weaving groups with over thirty weavers in each group – practically all of them women who have been taught this age-old craft by their mothers and grandmothers. Inspirational Mbeti has built a weavers’ centre with her savings, and it’s from here that she runs the group, stores basket weaving materials and supplies, and prepares completed orders for shipping.

These orders keep her hundreds of weavers in regular work, and able to provide for their own families through this flexible, portable and sociable craft.
