Protecting you from cold-weather calamity, Harrods' cashmere is sourced from nomadic herders in the Gobi Desert. Utilising the fine undercoat of native mountain goats, skilled artisans in Loch Leven in Scotland then wash the yarn in the Loch's fresh waters and dye it with environmentally-friendly processes. Finally, experts in Hawick - the country's home of cashmere - shape the yarn into an enduring and dependable essential - in this case, a rib-knit trimmed scarf. Caring for your cashmere is the best way to ensure it lasts. We recommend hand washing your cashmere knitwear in lukewarm water with a cashmere shampoo and laying to dry on a flat surface. Alternatively, dry clean using a specialist cashmere dry cleaner.
