Cashmere Pashmina Wool yarn
has to be compared to normal regular wool. Unlike wool, it is a very thin and
soft and light weight. Many believe that Cashmere Pashmina is not a wool but
some other yarn, but the matter of fact is that it is special goat wool found
in mountains. Wool may be harvested through a process of combing the goat,
which results in slightly coarser wool. However, cashmere Pashmina is very
soft, warm, and light weight product. When you buy Embroidery Scarves and Shawls made of Cashmere Pashmina, those are ulitmate beauty to possess.
Since this cashmere pashmina wool is still rare, and still
popular, it is quite expensive. Lower grades might cost around 35-50 US dollars
(USD) for a scarf. High Microns based can be considerably higher prices. It
would not be surprise to pay up to 100 USD for a simple scarf. The cashmere pashmina,
is undoubtedly a most beautiful wrap made from this unique wool whose price may
range between 100 USD to 300 USD.
One more major reason to raise these kinds of goats in Mongolia
has led to slightly less expensive pashmina offerings. In-case of one being allergic
to wool, there are also some synthetic fabrics, which do come little bit close
to the texture and lightness of pashmina wool. However, people who know real
pashmina and love it, turn up their noses at these synthetics as providing
nowhere near the durability and quality of true pashmina.
