If you pay close attention to the label on the inside of your clothes, you will find that some sweaters have Wool on the inside label, which is 100% wool.
So what’s the difference between wool and cashmere?
1, is completely the product of two kinds of sheep: goats produce cashmere, sheep produce wool.
Each sheep produces a few kilograms of wool a year, which can be collected by shaving it all off with scissors.
Cashmere is different. It grows at the root of the goat’s coarse hair. When collecting it, it needs to be combed down a little by little with a special comb.
It takes an average of five pieces of cashmere to make an average cashmere sweater, so cashmere is.
2, cashmere feel and warmth is far better than wool (cashmere warmth is 8 times of wool), light than wool, the weight only accounts for one-fifth of it, but also relatively delicate, wear less than wool.
3, the specific classification of wool, is a university to ask.
virgin wool, or virgin wool, is the soft and precious wool that has been shaved from a sheep for the first time.
lambswool, “lambswool,” is wool taken from sheep babies about seven months old.
merino wool, the closest wool to cashmere, is larger than cashmere and will be used as an entry-level alternative to cashmere.
Mohair, also known as angora goat, is very shiny, fluffy, not easy to pilling, and easy to dye.
alpaca is known as the grass mud horse, alpaca.
alpaca wool is Albaca wool.
The texture is similar to casere, and even better than casHMere in some breeds.
Heat preservation is much higher than wool.
4. Anything that feels a little scratchy is definitely not pure cashmere.
High-quality cashmere is very light, clear grain, can be worn close to the body, no feeling of pricking.
The tags tell us what it’s made of.
Some cashmere products may be blended with wool, and some are even visco artificial fiber imitation cashmere. The hanging tag will indicate the percentage of blended.
General in order to prevent pure cashmere, wool puck, or increase pendant feeling, crisp feeling, or reduce the price and so on, it is necessary to blend other fibers.
For example, wool & acrylic fiber, fabric feel will be more fluffy and soft, antibacterial and anti-moth effect will also be significantly improved;
Wool & nylon will improve the wear resistance of the fabric, and anti-static and so on.
