About Us
Working in the remote mountain villages of Northern India, the indigenous women of Himalayan Naari are revitalizing local woolen crafts by combining their traditional stitches with modern designs.
Local women learned to knit as children and continue knitting as a way to clothe their families. Their hands are always busy - knitting while they walk or passing time waiting for their children at school. Naari women are never still. Partnering with Himalayan Education Foundation, they have turned their talents into a business to support their families.
