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
Aziza Kobrachine
Aziza Kobrachine is from Tadula Zanfi and attended school until the fourth grade. She learned how to weave from her sister and then finished a training where she learned more about textile making and natural dyes. Aziza took part in establishing the association, which was one of the first in the immediate area. Her goals with it were to create a place where women could work together and find a way to generate income through their own business without having to resort to their families.
Rashida Fanshaar
Rashida was born in Teduit in 1978 and has been able to attend school through the 6th grade. After she left school, she learned the craft of weaving from her mother and was able to earn a small amount of income, which she could spend on herself. She hopes that good things come to the association and that it continues to grow and flourish.
VISIT THE VILLAGE
Association Timouzounin hosts visitors in their village — share tea, watch the artisans at work, and see the craft up close. Visits start at $21 per person, and most of it goes straight to the group.
