A Boucherouite is a thick colorful rug made from recycled clothing that is woven and repurposed into new, unique designs. Boucherouites were originally created out of necessity but are now a coveted item for decorating a modern home.
Halima Aissaoui from Moulide was born in 1976 and later relocated to Khenifra. Halima is a widow and has three children. Halima completed the third grade and then went on to learn the art of weaving from her mother and through vocational training. Halima joined the cooperative in order to make money to manage the expenses of her home and her children.
