BABY CASHMERE 6/28 (PU)

Baby Cashmere 6/28 is the ultimate expression of luxurious softness. It is produced exclusively at the renowned Cariaggi mill in Italy. 

This extraordinary yarn is made from the first undercoat of young cashmere goats living in the Mongolian Highlands, a region known for producing some of the finest cashmere. The harsh climate encourages the growth of an ultra-fine insulating undercoat with a diameter of just 13.5 microns, making it significantly finer and rarer than conventional cashmere.

The balanced structure of this yarn creates a beautifully smooth and refined knitted fabric. Light yet warm, it offers an elegant drape and a luxurious feel against the skin.

Presented in its natural undyed shade (Color 54), the yarn highlights the authentic character of this exceptional fiber.

Why Baby Cashmere?

The term “baby” describes the first and finest undercoat collected from young goats. Because only very small quantities can be obtained, Baby Cashmere is considered one of the rarest and most luxurious natural fibers.

As with all our cashmere bases, Baby Cashmere 6/28 is SFA-certified organic, ensuring that every step of the production process adheres to the highest standards of animal welfare, environmental preservation, and community support. The Sustainable Fibre Alliance (SFA) guarantees ethical treatment of goats, sustainable grazing practices, and fair wages for herders, making this yarn a responsible choice for eco-conscious knitters.
