CUSTOMERS ~ Frequently Asked Questions
“I live in a warm climate, therefore, cashmere
is too hot for me to wear.”
Cashmere can be worn in all climates as it comes in different
weights. For summer wear, two-ply is the best as it allows the skin
to breathe and is cool to wear.
“I love the idea of owning a cashmere sweater
but I am afraid that it is very difficult to look after.”
Many people are scared of washing cashmere, however, the more you
wash it the better. Treat your cashmere sweater like your own hair
and wash it gently in luke warm or cold water using a lanolin based
wash. Block it out on a towel to shape and just let it dry
naturally, then if you wish, iron it inside out. Have a peak at our
care products, a detailed description is available on how to wash
your cashmere.
“Does cashmere pill?”
All natural fibres pill a little. If your cashmere sweater pills,
just wash it. Pilling is caused by rubbing and dirt, so it is a good
idea to wash frequently. The more you wash it, the better! Avoid
harsh fabrics on top of your cashmere, such as fleece. Remember
that your purse strap can harm your sweater.
“I dry clean all my clothes, so should I send
my cashmere sweaters to the dry cleaner?”
It is, of course, fine to dry-clean your cashmere. If you have
spilled grease (salad oil, etc.) on your cashmere, dry cleaning is
the best solution. However, washing by hand in a gentle wash and
drying naturally will prolong the life of your cashmere. Not only
will hand washing save you money, it will make your cashmere last
much longer and softer!

Mount Cashmere but I live far away and I am afraid it is

“Is there a difference in the quality of
cashmere?”
Yes, there are many degrees of cashmere quality. At Mount Cashmere
we design all our cashmere in Vancouver BC and use cashmere from
Mongolia & Nepal, which is the best in the world.
“When I am not wearing my cashmere, how do I
protect it from moths?”
We suggest that you store your cashmere in bag when you are not
wearing it. Also, washing it in Mount-Cashmere Shampoo (special
cashmere wash available at Mount Cashmere) will help prevent moths.
Ensure that your cashmere is always clean & dry prior to storing.
“Why should I order a cashmere sweater from

a selection of vibrant fashion colours, European styles and range of
sizes because Mount Cashmere is a ‘specialty’ cashmere store where
truly, one is not enough!

The co lour swatches featured on each style page can vary depending

dull, which is a difficult thing to control using digital images. We
have strived to make the colours as representative as possible.
