For almost a century, the Coast Salish knitters of southern Vancouver Island have produced Cowichan sweaters from handspun wool. These distinctive sweaters are known and loved around the world, but the Indigenous women who make them remain largely invisible.
Unfortunately the movie The Story of the Coast Salish Knitters is not yet available on HBO Max.
