Luxury, softness, comfort and elegance are the main features of Cashmere (of which we have already discussed here). It’s the undercoat produced by a rare goat bred not only in Kashmir, but also in Tibet, Afganistan and Mongolian highlands. The criteria for this yarn are quite strict, especially regarding the process of shearing, which only occurs in late spring, so during the hottest time of the year. The wool that is made from these goats is second in quality only to Vigona, but to make more or less valuable the wool is the thickness: finer is and more valuable will be the wool. But why this fine wool is particularly warm and light? Its interior contains a particular structure that favors the thermal insulation, Cashmere is the most soft among all types of wool.
