The wood’s malleability makes it perfect to add woven patterns that create a unique textural look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFound inside the Agave plant, sisal fibers are fine but incredibly strong, with a naturally light color great for dying. Rwandan artisans often use sisal in a traditional coil weaving technique where hand dyed threads are wrapped around bunches of sweetgrass to create a tightly coil in a range of colors and patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eImpact\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artisan sector is the second largest employer in the developing world.
