Product Story

The Small Lines Baskets are made using a unique hybrid weaving crochet technique in Northern Coastal Peru. We're excited to be using a recycled yarn made of 70% plastic bottles and 30% cotton mixed with a 100% jute to create texture and contrast. The baskets are flexible, yet durable and ready for whatever you throw at (or in) them. They are great for all sorts of storage - kitchen, bathroom, or catchall.

Please note that all discounted items are final sale.

Made by Basket Weavers in Pacasmayo, Peru

Pacasmayo is a small town on the northern coast of Peru, right where the edge of the desert meets the Pacific Ocean. There we work with several women-run cooperatives who specialize in a hybrid of European crochet and traditional backstrap loom weaving. This technique is only found in the Andes - in the north of Peru through Ecuador and Colombia.

About these artisans

Since this technique doesn't require a machine or backstrap loom, it's convenient for the women to work from home. Traditionally, this technique is used to make small bags, coca leaf bags, and blankets. They also typically use brightly colored cotton and synthetics; however, we’ve partnered with them to use 100% jute and a blend of 70% recycled plastic bottles and 30% cotton.
