Traditional fabric from Marrakesh, Morocco brought to you by traveler Alyx Bean.
"Marrakesh, Morocco is a very vibrant and bustling city, well known for its desert landscape and large souk markets. In the search for fabric, I discovered a local family business that creates hand-loom woven textiles. The weaving process is slow and tedious, but results in beautiful authentic designs such as the one I selected. This particular fabric is spun from both cotton, and cactus silk thread, a material popularly used in Morocco and becoming globally known as the “vegan alternative” to silk. When asked, a local Moroccan friend identified this design as being the one that felt most like home."—Alyx Bean
