Jacquard knitting of cashmere on a hand-flat machine at Pashmina Studio
Hand-flat knitting, 1.5 to 14 gauge

Knitted Cashmere Scarves & Knitwear

Knitting is where this business began, over two decades ago. It is an entirely handmade process, worked by a team primarily made up of skilled women knitters and menders, and monitored from fibre through to finished piece.

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

We 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 held in-house 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.
