I
know this isn't about Atlin, it's about me. I had the pleasure of being
in Marrakech earlier this year, and came upon a wonderful store, Al
Kawtar. They sell caftans, shirts, baby clothes, table linens - all
hand-made and hand-embroidered by disabled Moroccan women who take part
in a daycare program there. You can actually meet the women who make
the items. They work with the softest cottons, the finest silks, and gorgeous linens. Al Kawtar is not-for-profit. The money goes to the
workers and to the program. You can order items online and specify
dimensions and colour.
I can highly recommend the cotton caftans. Mmmmmm...
If you have an Atlin or Atlin-related business or event which you would like to see on Atlin Links, contact Carolyn Moore.
