About Toockies:

All Toockies products are Fairtrade certified.
When we purchase the cotton yarn from the mill in India, we receive a certificate with a Control Union stamp, the cotton is GOTS certified Fairtrade.
The women who participate in this project is taught how to knit at a local community centre, where a bathroom has been built just for them.
The knitters take home a little roll of yarn, and once a week they drop off finished products, where a quality check is facilitated.
There is a doctor present who are giving the knitters and their children a free check up.
Handmade in India by women in a Fairtrade project, managed by a local NGO called “Promise Charitable Trust”
