Q:
What is the difference between Cashmere and Pashmina?
Ans: Technically we can consider Pashmina and Cashmere
as same. Two different names of the same product. The
name "cashmere" derived from the Kashmir the
northern India and the Pashmina is derived from the
word Pashm. A pashmina is a type of goat endemic to
Kashmir, Ladakh, and Himachal Pradesh regions of India.
Its fleece has been used for thousands of years to make
high-quality shawls that also bear the same name. They
are known for softness and warmth. Pashmina is simply
"cashmere." The name is more appropriate,
corresponding to a local term for wool, while cashmere
reflects the colonialist perspective -- the [noted]
fabric of Kashmir.

Q:
What is the Technical Information of Cashmere?
Ans: Once the raw cashmere hairs are sold to mills (primarily
in Italy, Scotland, and China) then to be converted
into yarn, other factors come into consideration. Some
factories will pick through the raw material by hand
to separate out the mud and grass (the most effective,
time-consuming, and thus expensive technique); others
simulate the process by machine; and some simply skip
straight to the spinning (the process by which the hairs
become yarn). Asian factories have detailed workmanship
and are especially suited for labor intensive and embellished
garments. |

Q:
Why cashmere is expensive?
Ans: A simple case of supply and demand. The annual
cashmere "crop", in tonnage, is only a fraction
of that of wool or cotton. A goat will only produce
about 4 ounces of fine cashmere fleece in a year. This
means it would take 3 years for a goat to produce enough
cashmere for one woman's sweater, 4 years for one man's
sweater. |
