Artist: Kare Maramo

Kare was born in Angola in 1966, and fled the civil war to Botswana with her parents when she was two years old. She has five daughters and one son. She was given away in marriage when she was thirteen years old, and had her first child at sixteen. She had three children by her first husband, who used to beat her when he was drunk, so the elders in the village agreed that she could leave him. She now lives with her third husband.

She never went to school, but is doing well at the adult education courses, and has learnt how to read and write. Her mother taught her to weave when she was 12 years old. When she first started to weave, there were only two grades: P for ‘Premium’ and IM for ‘Intermediate’.

Kare worked in the 1990’s as a basket grader. This involves checking the use of colour, the tightness of the weave, the design and the quality of the finish. She says the job was difficult, as some people did not accept the grades she awarded their baskets, and the grading method. This made her unhappy, and she was relieved when she was invited to join the Etsha Weavers Group in 2001.

Kare prefers to collect her own materials, going as far as Nxamasere for the dye-making materials; but she sometimes buys from other people as collecting is time-consuming and can be dangerous.

My favorite BMW car mount.
This is my favorite mount for BMWs. I have them on two cars (X4M and a 328), but I always modify the mount and install a metal ball (purchased here on Amazon) so I can mount an ESR Wireless charger. This combo is the best charging mount and system I have ever tried

sturdy mount nice fit
fit nicely and magnet is strong using the included metal disc to put inside phone case. was missing instructions but figured it out. you have to screw in the small set screws until it is snug. using a longer hex key made it easier.

Great for. Recommend swapping set screws out for longer ones.
Works great and fits like a glove. Would recommend providing install instructions for less mechanically inclined individuals and definitely switching to MUCH longer set screws.
