2. A Cashmere shawl is as warm as 6 sweaters. It is very thin, yet very warm.

3. It takes almost 250 hours to weave one plain cashmere shawl.

4. Cashmere comes in three colors - white, grey, and brown - but the material can be dyed like any other type of wool.

 


5. An embroidered shawl takes a few months to a few years to make. Embroidery that covers the entire shawl in a tight pattern is known as Jamawar embroidery. Jamawar shawls take 4 to 5 years to complete.

6. Pashmina wool is so fine that it cannot be spun using machinery. It is about 100 times thinner than a strand of human hair. While human hair is 100 microns thick, Pashmina is only about 10 microns. This is what makes the wool so luxurious, so rare, and such art to work with.
