Cashmere yarn

Cashmere is the fine undercoat of the cashmere goat, combed out by hand, so a goat gives only a few ounces a year. It's exceptionally soft and light for its warmth, and well worth it for the pieces that sit against your neck and face.

Exceptionally soft, light and lofty
Warmth
Very warm for its weight
Care
Hand wash cool with a gentle wash, dry flat, and store with moth protection
Best for
