Boucherouite rugs are thick colorful rugs used making recycled clothing that are no longer in use. Many of Tadighoust's boucherouite rugs are defined by distinct traditional symbols rooted in Saharan culture.
Aicha grew up in Kasr Mouy Tadighoust and learned craft from her early age from her mother. She is widowed and has two kids. She joined Association Tadighoust to join forces with other women artisans and protect their craft and revenue. Her Anou sales have helped her to provide for her kids education.
