Today I'm featuring a great company, Ricefield Collective, it was started with with the aim of offering job opportunities to women in the Philippine's that have no steady source of income. The goal of the collective is to use handknitting as a way of maintaining the sustainability of life in Ifugao by training its villagers to make high-quality knitted items and other handicrafts.  You can read the full story over at their website.

They are having a presale right now where you can purchase hand knitted hats and cowls before the full web site and winter collection is launched in October!  I have my eye on this hat and cowl set in Navy and the spiral slouchy hats in a variety of colors!


Now the fun part! Ricefield Collective have offered up one of their great hats for a giveaway, I'm jealous, I want to win it for myself! To enter you must live in the US/Canada and be a follower of the blog.  Use the widget below to enter.  You will win your choice of color in the Upward Beanie!
