RHODE X PROJECTHRIVE

Crochet is hand made by female artisans who work from home in purdah. These orders are the only opportunity of income for these communities. Crochet is traditional to these communities who create ornate pieces for their wedding trousseaus using this skill. Projecthrive initiative has been capacity building and training these communities and connecting them with socially minded brand such as RHODE since 2019.

 Through the utilization of hand crochet rather than machine crochet, we’ve sequestered 49 kg of CO2 emissions in the production of these garments.

Through this collaboration by using hand crochet instead of machine crochet we have saved 179.2 Kw of electricity.
