Not all cashmere is the same
Cashmere is the underfleece of Capra hircus, which acts as an insulating layer to protect the animal from thermal excursions between day and night, for this reason the best cashmere, the same we use to make our sweaters, comes from the desert of China. and from the highlands of Mongolia, where temperature variations are greatest.
Only 150 grams of fiber are obtained from each goat and about 4 goats are needed to make a medium weight sweater, which is why quality cashmere is so precious.
We buy 100% cashmere yarns directly from the most exclusive Italian spinning mills that work it in various weights and finenesses so as to adapt it to all seasons.
