Tight Knit Syria was founded in 2013, and is a non-profit organization that works with displaced Syrian women and connects their beautifully handmade products to local and international markets. They currently work with two collectives (Northern Syria and Lebanon) where many of our artisans have fled war and are faced with challenges in refugee camps, including lack of sufficient humanitarian aid, high daily expenses, and extreme living conditions. Although they were forced to leave their belongings behind, they brought with them the knowledge of traditional skill sets like embroidery, crocheting, and knitting, passed on from their mothers and grandmothers. Coupled with their resilience, resourcefulness and creativity, these women have the ability to earn an income to support themselves and their families.
