What is Cashmere?
Cashmere is the softest most prized fiber for sweaters and suiting. Cashmere is soft, light
weight, durable, very warm and makes wonderful feeling garments for wearing. It has long been one of the most exotic and rarest
fiber to be found. Cashmere is the term for the soft down undercoat of Cashmere goats. The fleece of Cashmere goats is made
up of two distinct fibers. The coarse outer hair and the fine cashmere undercoat. The coarse outer hair is called guard hair.
The fine undercoat (under 18.5 microns) is the source of Cashmere fiber for clothing.
