Machine washable on wool programme, but plan on it stretching a bit lengthwise after the first washing. This is typical for soft wool yarns as the wool fibres do not have the coarse surface scales that help keep everything in place. Pull lightly lengthwise on the project, and you can see the finished length.
Our Klassik Cashmere is a very highend cashmere with a lot of volume witout using many gram of the yarn.

Made in Italy
For high quality cashmere, long, uniform fibres are used - unlike cheaper cashmere which is often produced from unsorted, mixed cashmere with short fibres and varying quality.
Cashmere is a strong, wash durable fibre. The more you wash your cashmere, the softer it gets. If you're knitting a shawl to give as a present - then wash it before giving it away.
Have attention on that our cashmere yarns are already carefully washed befor we put them on balls. During the washing proces we loose 10-12% of the weight. The washing proces also give space for a lot of air in the yarn = volume. If we not washed the yarns, we could offer the yarn minimum 12% cheaper. But we prefer to give you the best yarn with a lot of volume. In the end you will have a better result and use less ball/yarn for your project.
