What is Pashmina?
Pashmina
, also known as the fine cashmere wool, is the most softest , luxurious and the
warmest wool in the world. It comes from
the hair of underbelly of mountain goat Capra Hircus, locally called
"Chyangra". Mountain goat is a special breed of goat indigenous to
high altitudes ( 12000 ft. to 14000 ft.) of the Himalayan region where
temperature goes down up to-40 degree centigrade. The thermocoductivity of this
type wool is the best in the world as it keeps mountain goat survive at -40
degree centigrade. Pashmina fibre is less than 14-19 microns in thickness
making it very soft whereas human hair is approx. 75 microns thick. Pashmina is
used to make luxurious products like shawls, sweaters, scarves, wraps and stoles
etc. These products are hand spun, woven and embroidered by traditional weavers
and artisans whose families have been in this occupation since ages.
Pashmina
products have been manufactured in Nepal and Kashmir for thousands of years. Pashmina and Cashmere both are derived from
mountain goats but one distinct difference between them is the fiber diameter.
Pashmina fibers are finer and thinner than cashmere fiber, therefore, it is
ideal for making light weight apparel like fine scarves.
Pashmina
from Nepal have been considered as the best in quality because of the
conditions to which the mountain goats have adapted over centuries. The high
Himalayas of Nepal has a harsh, cold climate and in order to survive, the
mountain goats have developed exceptionally warm and light fiber which may be
slightly coarser and warmer than cashmere fibers obtained from lower region
goats.
Washing instruction:
One
of the wonderful feature of Pashmina products is we can keep them lasting for
years and years if we take proper care of them. It will even get softer and
more luxurious with each wash!
Generally, dry cleaning is the preferred method of washing for Pashmina and
cashmere products. However, you can hand wash occasionally if you are careful
and follow a few guidelines that are listed below. We do suggest washing it
before first use to make sure the natural vegetable dyes do not bleed. 1 WASHING: To Wash by hand, soak it in soapy Luke- warm water for
a little while, and then wash very gently rubbing soiled areas. Then rinse it
two or three times thoroughly until there's no more soap left. Do not wring the
Pashmina product as the fabric is sensitive to pressure, and rough handling.
2. DRYING: To Dry, lay it flat on a drying rack, but make
sure it's evenly spreaded across the rack, rather than simply hung, because
hanging while wet stretches the fabric.; Another option if you don't have a
rack is just to get a dry towel and let dry on the towel.
3. IRONING:
Now, your Pashmina is clean! But you'll probably notice a great deal of
unsightly wrinkles populating on your Pashmina surface. This is perfectly
normal. It is best to put Pashmina between two towels on medium heat and
iron those wrinkles away!
4. STORAGE
For safe keeping, make sure you store your Pashmina in a way that doesn't bunch
it up. Fold it neatly and either place it on a hanger of keep it on a shelf.
