what makes mongolian cashmere special?
mongolian cashmere is renowned for its exceptional softness, warmth, and durability. Sourced from the undercoat of cashmere goats that endure Mongolia's harsh winters, the fibers are incredibly fine. This results in a luxurious fabric that is lightweight yet remarkably insulating. The nomadic herding traditions and sustainable grazing practices ensure that the cashmere is ethically and responsibly sourced, preserving both the environment and the livelihoods of local communities.
what if my washing machine doesn’t have a “wool cycle”?
if your machine doesn’t offer a specific wool or delicate cycle, don’t worry — you can still safely wash your cashmere. Simply set the water temperature to cold and adjust the spin cycle to the lowest setting. This manual setup mimics the gentle conditions of a wool cycle and helps preserve the softness and integrity of your cashmere.
