Once a year, the noble hair of cashmere goats, which live in China and Mongolia, are obtained by plucking or combing. The downy hair of the cashmere goats varies from white, gray, brown to black inherent color. Spinning requires a great deal of effort to produce a subsequent high quality and is reserved for only a few specialists.
As a result, cashmere wool is characterized by its high fineness and wearing comfort. Due to the elaborate processing and the rare harvest, cashmere has been traded as a valuable product on the textile market since the 1980s.
Due to its high price, cashmere is rarely processed pure and is preferably processed with angora or merino wool.
