Wool Felt

Our 100% wool felt is non-synthetic and eco-friendly. We use only highest quality New Zealand wool felt. Wool is the most versatile fabric, combining many features such as strength, 100% biodegradable, renewable, sustainable textile, non-flammable and safe for use around people and pets. Most of our wool felt products are created by the application of moisture and agitation to the fibres and requires no bonding agent. We work with number of skilled artisans who are equally committed to exploring and celebrating the never-ending potential of traditional handmade felt as a modern art and craft medium, for use in functional and wearable arts and crafts.

Knitwear Wool

Wool we use are GOTS and OEKO-TEX standard Eco friendly and comes from New Zealand. We believe functional wearable should not be MASS produced, just quality wearables made in a sustainable way - and we have done it! Hamro Village has trained 100 knitters who are skilled and have become master knitters themselves with their already existing skills of indigenous motifs and crafts. These skilled knitters can train and empower many other emerging artisans with their craftsmanship. Our knitters come from many small surrounding villages. In a traditional Nepali society where the majority of women tend to work only in the domestic sphere, Hamro has helped these women knitters a way to gain economic stability and independence by bringing their beautifully crafted knitwear into the mainstream market.
