About these texts

Weaving, pottery, glass, tilework and boatbuilding: these texts watch craftspeople at work and follow skills from one generation to the next. Marrakech’s Crafts Today walks through the markets of the old city, where children learn crafts from their fathers; From Engineering to Zellige meets a civil engineer who chose coloured tilework instead; and Why Does a Bisht Take So Long? explains the slow weaving of the Hasawi cloak of Al-Ahsa. Craft texts are full of tools, materials and verbs of making.
