What Trama Textiles is known for

Trama Textiles is a women's weaving cooperative in Quetzaltenango where more than 150 Indigenous Guatemalan artisans hand-weave textiles on traditional backstrap looms using natural dyes. Its storefront in Xela sells clothing, home decor and accessories alongside an online shop, and weavers set their own prices under the cooperative's fair-trade model.
