Your Experience
Join a standard group rug weaving workshop with cooperative artisans and work on a traditional Berber loom using all wool and loom materials.
Getting started
Arrive at the women's cooperative and check in for your Standard Group Rug Weaving Workshop with Cooperative Artisans. You meet the cooperative's artisans in their own workshop and are introduced to the traditional Berber loom. Once everyone in the standard group is settled, the guided weaving session begins with an explanation of how a rug takes shape from raw wool.
What to expect
Berber rug weaving workshop with a women's cooperative
This is a single-location, hands-on workshop inside the cooperative's own space, focused on traditional Berber rug weaving. You follow a rug's journey from raw wool to a finished motif, then work on your own section on the loom alongside the artisans.
Features
- Traditional loom practice is at the heart of the visit, as you weave on a traditional Berber loom guided by the cooperative's artisans and see each knot and row build into a recognizable motif.
- Process is a key focus, and you follow a rug from raw wool to a finished motif, step by step, observing how fibers are prepared, placed, and tightened to create durable patterns.
- Participation is fully supported, with a guided weaving session with cooperative artisans and all wool and loom materials provided so you can concentrate on technique rather than supplies.
- Comfort and keepsakes are built in, with mint tea and water served during the workshop and souvenir photos included so you leave with both practical skills and a visual reminder of your time at the cooperative.
