From waste to handmade crochet

Rajut Nusa is a women-led artisan community from Yogyakarta transforming discarded materials into meaningful handmade crochet accessories.

Where It All Began

Rajut Nusa, founded in February 2024 in Yogyakarta, is an eco-sociopreneur brand dedicated to upcycling handmade crochet, transforming plastic packaging and textile waste into refined fashion accessories with a modern identity.

Our mission is to reduce waste while empowering women, including mothers of children with special needs, by creating meaningful work opportunities within an ethical and supportive community. Every piece is crafted through a low-energy handmade process that maximizes material reuse, minimizes environmental impact, and ensures fair wages for local artisans.


By elevating discarded materials into high-value designs, Rajut Nusa offers a conscious alternative to fast fashion, where craftsmanship, sustainability, and social impact come together to create lasting beauty.
