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 3 members of Association Timouzounin

Aicha Fanshir

Aicha Fanshir was born in Tadula Zanfi in the early seventies. She studied in school for a couple of years before having to drop out to support her family. She learned how to weave from her mom and other relatives. Due to her skill, she decided to join the association. Today she is married with 5 children. Since her husband has day to day work in agriculture, she hopes that any sales she is able to make can supplement her family’s income and put her children through school.

Atrbik Hasna

Hasna is the mother of two small children and has been weaving all of her life. She learned how to weave from her aunt when she was very young. She studied until the sixth grade and had to stop studying after that. In lieu of the school, Hasna has been able to continue developing her weaving skills at the association. Though she earns little from her weaving, she hopes that through the association there will be greater global demand for her village’s rugs!

Aisha Affi

Aisha was born in 1982, in Teduit ZanFi. She is not married and dropped out of school after the fourth grade. Aisha learned the craft of weaving from her mother after she stopped attending school. Aisha has other skills in handicraft that she sells through this association. From this association, she has been able to earn a meaningful amount of income to assist her family.
