Have you ever wondered what makes cashmere so special? If you didn’t know already- cashmere comes from goat ( magical goats) in a way that most of these goats live in areas surrounding the Gobi desert and grow extremely fine hair underneath their coarse outer coats. It can take up to four goats to to grow enough cashmere for one cashmere sweater.

This is why cashmere has always been considered to be one of the finer fibers out there. You can also tell the difference between the “finer” cashmere themselves because cashmere can range from $100-1,000.  The longer the fiber ( which takes longer to grow) the finer the fiber and therefore it can be more expensive for this kind of quality- hence the price difference.
