Beauty, Creativity, Resourcefulness
Be Sweet, a company with a conscience, was founded on the principle of being kind to others.
It’s mission: to bring socially and environmentally friendly products to fashionable consumers,
that evoke an individual style and help support community development around the world.
Be Sweet works with several job creation programs
in developing countries who give artisans the
confidence and the means to support themselves
and their families in an otherwise economically
depressed region. The programs in South Africa
have grown to include over 200 crafters, mostly
female members of the Xhosa Tribe who live in
the Western and Eastern Cape regions. Program
participants are responsible for making accessories,
home goods, jewelry and yarns. Many of the women
depend on the job creation program for their survival.
With the help of experienced program directors,
the women are able to work in stable environments
where they can earn a fair wage, learn a new skill
and enjoy their jobs.
Be Sweet began with wholesaling a handful of
handmade items from South Africa to boutiques
in the United States. Be Sweet’s specialty yarns,
beautiful wearable accessories and unique home
goods can now be found in over 300 boutiques in
the USA, Canada, Europe and Japan.
• Yarns are uniquely hand produced and measured by weight and
may vary in length.
• Gauge and needle sizes listed for each yarn are recommendations.
• Hand wash most yarns in cold water using mild soap.
• Color accuracy is not guaranteed printed or online.
