Knitted Cashmere Scarves & Knitwear

Our knitted cashmere is made on hand-flat machines by partner workshops in the Kathmandu valley that we have worked with for years, whose knitting and mending teams are made up largely of skilled women, and monitored from fibre through to finished piece.

Specifications

The brochure range also includes ponchos, hoodies and trousers. If a style you need is not listed, ask — most knitwear shapes are a development question rather than a capability one.

Gauge and texture

Our partner workshops knit on hand-flat machines from 1.5 to 14 gauge. Low gauge gives the chunky cable and rib textures; high gauge gives fine, lightweight knits with clean stitch definition. Gauge is the single biggest driver of how a knitted piece looks and what it weighs, so it belongs in your specification alongside composition and size.

Mending is done by hand by the same team that knits the garment — which is why finishing on a small run holds up as well as it does.

Colour

Stock shades are available from our shade card for faster turnaround. Custom colours are matched to a Pantone reference or to a swatch you supply, with natural and azo-free dyes across the line. Tipping, contrast trims and two-tone combinations are all straightforward.
