SPRING 2013 YARN COLLECTION<br />

<strong>Be</strong>auty, Creativity, Resourcefulness<br />

<strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong>, a company <strong>with</strong> a <strong>conscience</strong>, was founded on the principle of being kind to others.<br />

Nadine Curtis created <strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong> in 2003 while living in Cape Town, South Africa. It’s mission:<br />

to bring socially and environmentally friendly <strong>products</strong> to fashionable consumers, that evoke<br />

an individual style and help support community development around the world.<br />

<strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong> works <strong>with</strong> several job creation programs<br />

in developing countries who give artisans the<br />

confidence and the means to support themselves<br />

and their families in an otherwise economically<br />

depressed region. The programs in South Africa<br />

have grown to include over 200 crafters, mostly<br />

female members of the Xhosa Tribe who live in<br />

the Western and Eastern Cape regions. Program<br />

participants are responsible for making accessories,<br />

home goods, jewelry and yarns. Many of the women<br />

depend on the job creation program for their survival.<br />

With the help of experienced program directors,<br />

the women are able to work in stable environments<br />

where they can earn a fair wage, learn a new skill<br />

and enjoy their jobs.<br />

<strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong> began <strong>with</strong> Curtis wholesaling a handful<br />

of handmade items from South Africa to boutiques<br />

in the United States. <strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong>’s specialty yarns,<br />

beautiful wearable accessories and unique home<br />

goods can now be found in over 300 boutiques in<br />

the U.S., Canada, Europe and Japan.<br />

<strong>Be</strong> <strong>Sweet</strong> donates a portion of its profits to a<br />

non-profit educational support program in<br />

Cape Town called Bright Start.
