Meriem belongs to the women-only association in Anzal. Located about 30 kilometers north of the popular weaving town, Tazenakht. The Anzal collective was founded in 2007 and is kept alive by women passing the craft down through the generations.
Meriem and her sister Fatima work closely together in combination with their mom Malika.Made with 100% "live" wool, Meriem and her sister carded, spun and dyed the wool by hand. The colorful design was derived by a blend of spices and plants such as indigo stone, saffron, henna, and pomegranate skin to name a few.
