Black giant shawl in cashmere 200 x 140 cm

A black shawl in pure cashmere, measuring 200 x 140 cm. That is shawl rather than scarf territory: cloth enough to wear over the shoulders like a wrap, fold double around the neck, or lay across the knees on a cold evening.

The cashmere measures 15 µm and the weave is a twill — diagonal parallel ribs that let the fabric fall and drape. It is one of our extra large shawls, handwoven at our own weaving mill in the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal.

If you want to know where the fibre comes from before it ever reaches the loom, we have written about cashmere and how it is produced.

Care: Air the shawl outdoors rather than washing it when it is not really dirty. When it does need a wash, use a detergent intended for wool and cashmere and dry it flat — never in a tumble dryer. The full washing and care instructions for cashmere cover drying, steaming and pilling.
