Making of Abu Dis Hirbawi Kufiya
We know that all of you were very excited about the Hirbawi Al Quds kufiya, so we were about to make some more. And then this beautiful mistake happened. One of our Hirbawi superstars picked and fed the wrong yarn to the machine, and this gorgeous creation started to appear in the loom. Just when we were about to scrap it, we decided against it.
The name Abu Dis, however, is not accidental. Abu Dis is a Palestinian village in Jerusalem Governorate bordering Jerusalem (Al Quds in Arabic). Since there is such a close connection design-wise and considering the intention was to create Al Quds, we named this extraordinary new accident after a locality not far from Jerusalem.
Abu Dis is surrounded by deep valleys and is located on an ancient site. Ruins of buildings were found there, along with grape presses, caves, and cisterns to store rainwater.

But as we refuse all kinds of political attempts to substitute Al Quds (Jerusalem) with the city of Abu Dis, we will not accept it on ourselves to dub this Kufiya with the name Alquds. Instead, we call it Abu Dis. Named after an ancient Palestinian city located close to the city of Jerusalem. It is charming and beautiful, but clearly and in plain sight, Abu Dis is not our Alquds!
Without further ado we present you Hirbawi Abu Dis!

So Soft
This is such a lovely piece. I love how soft it is and the stitching for the little tassels is absolutely wonderful and anchored on so I don’t feel like I have to worry about it getting snagged and unraveling.

Worth the Wait
I had wanted to purchase a kufiya for a while but kept missing the restock on the main Hirbawi website. To me, it is more important to support Palestinian-made goods directly than to find a quicker alternative. As the last factory in Palestine to produce kufiya, I was willing to wait to support Hirbawi.
When I heard that Hirbawi USA restocked the black and white kufiya, I quickly placed my order. It arrived much faster than I expected, as I ordered it on Friday, and it arrived 2 days later on Sunday. To be honest, it was larger than I anticipated, but the quality was excellent, and I like the weight of the material. When it’s too hot during the day, I’ve worn it around my waist. During the evening I wear it as a scarf or shawl, and it keeps me warm as an extra layer. I’m looking forward to wearing my kufiya to more events, and I’ll keep my eye on future restocks for other designs.
Until Palestine is Free, we must keep raising our voices to end the genocide.
