The designs made by the association are rooted in the long weaving history of the region. Many of these rugs, known as Taznakht rugs, are made distinct by bright reds and yellows, colors that represent the landscape in which the rugs were made. These bohemian style rugs have a contemporary feel while incorporating traditional Moroccan designs.

MEET THE MAKERS

Handmade by 2 members of Association Timouzounin

Zineb Rkhsis

Zineb is a Tadula Zanfi native and was born in the late 1980’s. Zineb attended school until the sixth grade as it was not commonly encouraged to finish more years of school at the time of her youth. She learned how to weave from her relatives and now specializes in flatweave or hanbel rugs. She hopes that one day her association becomes well known and is able to improve the lives of the women within it.

Aicha Abrik

Aicha Abrik is a Tadule Zanfi native. Aicha only spent one year in school before having to leave to support her family. While supporting her family at home, she learned how to weave from her mom and other relatives. She specializes in pile knot rugs and can also make some impressive embroidered designs.
