ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT CASHMERE

Do you need a fun way to say adieu to summer 2022? Then get a sweater for the occasion when the cold weather gets rolling. And who doesn’t love the sweater anyways? And for an outfit, that’s so wonderfully classic, the variations are simply infinite. The oversized and chunky turtleneck hooded—is all there for the day. But nothing can come even closer to cashmere, a stunner of a fabric, when the weather gets bitingly cold.  This blog will cover why the cashmere pieces are quintessential for any closet, and why you need them anytime.

First and foremost, if you think comfort, versatility and quality are the major elements of the ideal sweater, then any cashmere-blended knit will emerge a winner.

How does it stand out?
I always feel that a sweater that will disintegrate, deform or lose shape within a season is not worth the money and time from a buying perspective. If your objective is to see your sweater outlast use going through season after season, then the cashmere sweater stands out. If you take proper care of it, it will even outlast us all. But let’s remember that the benefits to owning this timeless outfit in your wardrobe go beyond its durability.

Superior quality cashmere can be three times warmer compared to sheep’s wool, but in terms of weight it’s much lighter. The presence of amino acids and its moisture content ensure that whilst it is insulating during the cold weather, it would also maintain the cool temperature when the days are balmy and warmer. With this luxurious knit covered around the body, you will still enjoy the benefits of its breathable nature. This invariably makes it a favorite wear under trans-seasonal conditions or unpredictable climes.  All organic, it is convenient to dye, and the yarn alone can be spun in several ways—this is the reason why the everyday range of cashmere sweater beats the rest. It drapes exceedingly well; therefore, it is very flattering on the body.

What is the differentiating factor?          
The wool itself is derived from the soft undercoat of goats reared below sub-zero temperature, which is what provides them with the supremely thick, fuzzy fleece. A point to note here is that these soft fibers are shed every spring, and requires to be disintegrated from the coarser top coat of the goat. This generally involves manual combing and sorting. Only approximately 0.33 percent of the equivalent volume of sheep’s wool made globally per year is produced in cashmere wool—and that’s about 6,500 tonnes contrasted to 2 million.  This explains why the cashmere is considered the best of luxury wool fabrics!

Styling options
Sweaters that feature slimmer feat is said to offer more styling options compared to the loose, oversized or chunky ones, but that doesn’t necessarily indicate their distinctive benefits. I feel that the cashmere is a more fitted sweater type, in addition to its uniquely luxurious feel. A more fitted sweater is appropriate for dressier and casual occasions—it looks as splendidly good teamed up with tailored trousers as it clinically does with a pair of jeans.
