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.
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.
