The luxury fibre mainly comes from the Kashmir goat and is typically three times more insulating than sheep’s wool. CASHMERE is an extremely soft, expensive wool that is commonly used in shawls, jumpers and cardigans. It is made from a very fine, close weave and has been manufactured in Mongolia, Nepal and Kashmir for thousands of years.Why is cashmere so expensive?
The reason that the fabric is so pricey is that Kashmir goats only produce around 113 g of cashmere fibre each annually.
It takes around two goats every year to produce enough fibre to make a single jumper.
Clothes made from cashmere are up to eight times warmer than sheep’s wool and are extremely soft to touch.
CASHMERE IN SPRING AND SUMMER? ABSOLUTELY!
Cashmere cardigans and pullovers made of the light summer yarn are perfectly suited to spring outfit combinations, enabling you to adjust optimally to the capricious weather conditions. On cool mornings, the natural fibre keeps you wonderfully warm and ideally balances out the rising temperatures during the course of the day.
No wardrobe should be without a nice cashmere jumper, cardigan or scarf.
