Sabina observed that the women can now produce any type of woolen products - according to design and colors requested - but the quality of the products is not sufficiently high to offer them for export on a large scale.

Do you have any ideas of how to help improve the quality of the knit wear?

After all ,I am able to send some samples through Andrew in UK when he was in Nepal. And also another lady form UK who visited our project has also taken sample which she is sending to her sister in UK. Attach is packed sample for UK where I use a small printed tag designed by MIka. I hope it help us more in finding market abroad.

For now she ordered to make caps to use/show to her friends, relatives, buyers in UK as a sample. She informed me that she has also send some our samples to Canada. She paid us for samples. I'm hoping that in this way, somehow we will get good orders from abroad.

Sure! It's always different if you actually hold something in your hands than if you're just seeing a picture of it ;) and it's a good time to show around woollen things!
Keeping my fingers crossed, Angelika

We had visitors from UK ,Mr. Shaun and Mrs.Carol. They've also taken samples to show in shop in UK and some pieces for gift.We had very good meeting.They are going back tomorrow.

I really like to share this news that one lady from Netherland coming next week to visit our project . She is buyer and wants to import woolen garments from Nepal. If she likes our work , I m sure, she will place some orders. I'm really hoping to get start for real proffessional business.

Last week, Third World Craft, after seeing our catelogue ,also put our samples in their shop as well as for online shopping.

Tks to everyone who are supporting our project.

Regards
Sabina
