wool-cashmere

Soft fabric combination

Wool-cashmere describes a fabric blend combining standard wool with cashmere, the finer fiber from cashmere goats.

The blend offers some of cashmere's softness and luxury at a lower price point than pure cashmere: a wool-cashmere sweater, wool-cashmere coat.

Garment labels typically indicate the ratio: 70% wool, 30% cashmere.
