About the Maker: Azerbaijani Yarn is located in a rural village of Azerbaijan and employs local women as well as using wool from local shepherds making these products very special and unique. Azerbaijani Sock strives to celebrate and honor the traditions, culture and artistry of Azerbaijan by helping preserve the craft of knitted socks. These socks were traditionally used as part of a bride’s dowry. They also symbolize the spirit of Azerbaijani hospitality, as guests are given these socks to use when they enter a home. Azerbaijani Socks’ vision is to provide fairly paid, flexible employment to women in rural areas of Azerbaijan (places where other employment opportunities are scarce). This enables women to provide for their families as they work from home, utilizing skills that have been passed down for generations. These women create beautifully unique, handmade, cozy, high-quality products that are sold globally.
