  • CASHMERE fabric

    Cashmere is a very delicate and extremely soft fibre. Shawls made from cashmere are lightweight but luxuriously warm & cosy for babies. Our cashmere shawls are direct from the factory in Kathmandu, Nepal; made to order just for you! Their goats are organically farmed and the naturally soft fleece is combed from the downy undercoat of the goat’s neck and underbelly using traditional techniques. These gorgeous shawls are handspun and woven in Nepal, then shipped to us in NZ.

    Cashmere shawls are extremly delicate and can get damaged easily if you carelessly wash and maintain them.
