Ecossar

ecossar is an importer of cloth and accessories from the philippines made from a mix of pineapple and cotton fiber. ecossar scarves are designed and handknitted by philippine artisans using piña fiber and cotton blend yarn. the raw materials are sourced directly from local farmers and farmer’s cooperatives to ensure that the premium prices paid do not go to middlemen. the yarn is dyed using natural dyes derived from plant pigments. these naturally dyed garments are compliant with international standards and requirements for performance and aesthetic qualities. through the artisan producers, ecossar helps support opportunities for micro-enterprises of husband and wife knitting teams. these partner-manufacturers in turn help improve the livelihood of their communities.
