Arrow Crochet Piñatex Pouch

Crochet
This bag was lovingly handmade by Wayuu indigenous women. Their creativity, expertise and learning abilities are reflected in the quality of their handicrafts. A high-quality bag is characterized by a tight weave and is created using three techniques: vertical weaving, "atulush" knotting and crocheting. With this project, Mama Tierra offers financial independence to indigenous women in La Guajira, an area between Colombia and Venezuela.

Vegan Leather
The leather part on the top is made of Ananas leaves that are processed into eco-leather. The stable pineapple-leaf fibers offer an equivalent substitute for animal leather.

Empowering indigenous women
Mama Tierra offers pre-payments and working material to indigenous women, thereby strengthening their financial independence. The focus is on women because they ensure the well-being of the family, securing its income and educating the children.
