Most people think they know cashmere. Few actually understand what separates a sweater that lasts a decade from one that pills and stretches out of shape in a single season.
The difference comes down to a handful of factors most buyers never think to ask about: fiber diameter, staple length, ply count, and where — and how — the yarn was actually made.
