Boitirelo Sewing and Knitting Project

Boiterelo Sewing and Knitting Project is located in a small village called Inveran. It was started by three ladies in 2002. Today there are eight women involved.

The ladies have been trained by the Department of Labour in knitting and sewing. They make school uniforms, traditional clothing, dresses, aprons and evening dresses.

They sell their handworks locally and the municipality also sometimes take the items to sell outside of the Blouberg region.
