  • Mix Mix is a creative fusion of traditional patterns, thoughtfully placed by the weaver to form a design that is entirely her own — unique, expressive, and rooted in culture:
    • The 'I' Design is taken from the english alphabetical letter 'i', and is a mark of pride amongst the weavers at having learnt an additional language
    • Back Bone design is the back bone of the pig. It is shared after being cooked with people of High Status.
  • This Bilum is handwoven from acrylic and wool yarn as well as up-cycled knitwear using traditional weaving techniques.

Florence, known as Bilum Meri. Florence has been vital to the success of Among Equals since its founding and is fiercely passionate about building a platform for the weavers. "I am strong for the weavers, I see them as sisters. These women now have the strength to stand up and be their own trader. It is a business for them, too, and that is very empowering."
