RICO Hand Knits
Our beautiful knits
blend traditional hand knitting
with sophisticated,
modern designs.
RICO Hand Knits and Crochets are made of 100% cotton string. Each garment and accessory is considered a piece of wearable art with no two
exactly alike! On more than one occasion a grain of rice has been found nestled among the yarn.
We consider this good luck!
You will always find a grain of RICO silver rice sewn into your knit as a reminder of the women you are supporting in their homes.
