Beadwork knitting techniques are used by convicts to produce various souvenirs such as rearview mirror ornaments, key chains, pen holders, and wallets. The shaping method is also known as “double knitting” or “blind knitting.” The prison knitting technique, known and used in prisons since the 1900s, is a cultural heritage considered traditional handicrafts. The sustainability of the tradition and the transfer of this traditional knowledge have decreased since prison beadworks are low in demand. This handicraft, which enables female prisoners and convicts to earn additional income in prison, makes leisure time productive and brings rehabilitation opportunities. The convicts stated, that knitting helps them to forget their loneliness as they share time in the workshop area with other convicts, enjoying friendship and solidarity, and the day passes much more quickly while they work. Designed entirely by the detainees, beadwork bags have written Turkish words of love and longing on them, such as ‘my dear girl’ or ‘my life’ as a means to send a message to their loved ones, making these bags even more special.
