Artisan Story: De Colores

De Colores is more than just a brand; it’s a movement aimed at empowering the indigenous population of Chichicastenango, Guatemala. This region is known for its rich cultural heritage and traditional textile products. However, many artisans face challenges in finding stable employment. De Colores addresses this issue by offering free training and job opportunities to those willing to learn a trade. The company employs 30 women and 18 men, allowing them to work from home or in the community, thus providing them with the flexibility they need.

Community Education and Sustainability

In addition to creating jobs, De Colores invests in community education by funding local schools and providing scholarships to deserving students. This commitment to education helps to break the cycle of poverty and empowers the next generation. Furthermore, De Colores is dedicated to using recycled materials whenever possible, showcasing traditional knitting patterns and reducing waste. This sustainable approach not only preserves the environment but also honors the rich cultural heritage of the artisans.

The production of our Hand Knitted Hacky Sack involves collaboration among community members. Men typically work on larger textiles, while women focus on the intricate embroidery, crochet, and macramé details found in smaller pieces. Although sewing machines may be used for assembly, every component is handmade and crafted with care. The use of natural materials such as cotton, wool, and silk ensures that each hacky sack is not only beautiful but also durable.

In summary, our Hand Knitted Hacky Sack is a unique, versatile product that embodies the spirit of creativity and community.
