Common questions
Is a cashmere cardigan worth it?
If you will wear it often, yes. Good cashmere is warm for its weight and lasts years with care. Cheap cashmere often thins and pills within a season.
How do I store cashmere?
Fold it, never hang it, and keep it in a breathable bag with cedar to discourage moths. Clean it before storing, since moths are drawn to body oils.
Cashmere or merino for a cardigan?
Cashmere feels softer and is warmer for its weight. Merino is tougher, cheaper and easier to wash.
