Every year we invite a class of students from the Crags Primary School for a tour of our mill, and a workshop in textile design. Each student is given the chance to design their own kikoi colourway, and a winning design is woven to life on our looms and sold in aid of funding an additional teacher at the school. Here’s the story of the 2022 Kids of Kurland Kikoi, designed by Grace Hendrickse.
Every year we invite a class of students from the Crags Primary School for a workshop in textile design & a tour of our mill.

Each year Mungo invites students from the Crags Primary School in Plettenberg Bay to the Mungo Mill, for a mill tour & textile workshop. Introducing the ‘Mungo Moon’, designed by Alwynia Simon and sold in aid of the Kids of Kurland foundation.
As part of Mungo’s Social Responsibility Initiative, MOVE, we recently hosted our second installment of the Kids of Kurland Kikoi Project. Read more about how 16 students got to design their very own kikoi colourway.
To facilitate more colours and greater volume we’ve moved the production of our striped Kikoi range to our Dornier machines. Welcome the South Kikoi.
