Setsoto Design

Lesotho


Next to a primary school near the Blue Mountain Inn, you can see the painstaking tapestry-making process at Setsoto Design. The project employs more than 60 local women who spin, dye and weave a beautiful selection of tapestries (M250 to M6500) and other crafts. You can even submit your own design to be turned into a tapestry. Credit cards accepted.
