Over time with clever designs, she and the knitters transformed the yarn into unique creations.   With a vision to further impact the community, Kenana Knitters taught women in the area to knit beautiful, organic cotton products using local, sustainable resources.  By providing a safe, family-friendly working environment, Kenana Knitters empowers women, offering them a chance to work and take charge of their lives, with pride and dignity.

Today, Kenana Knitters employs and pays fair wages to over 500 knitters and spinners. The organisation exports a collection of unique products to countries around the world. It provides a regular health clinic for the women, including free eye checks and glasses if needed, a savings plan and access to free electricity for phone and torch charging.  The Kenana Knitters are changing their lives, stitch by stitch.

Kenana Down Under (with One Colour) is the sole distributor for the Kenana Knitters in Australia and New Zealand.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
