Cashmere Sport
Lusciously soft handspun cashmere yarn from Afghanistan. Spinning this yarn provides Afghan women a fair wage that helps them support their families and a peaceful alternative to the drug trade. Our yarn comes in beautiful natural, undyed colors with a hand you have to feel to believe!
As our spinners get better and better at what they do we are able to offer handspun yarns with the same lovely twist but a lot more yardage in a skein! We are thrilled to offer this very versatile sport weight.
Our yarn is available in natural white, gray, light brown, and dark brown. These are undyed colors, echoing the goat herds of Afghanistan which have not yet been bred to white.
The Mouse Print Shawlette, Nasima shawl, and Check & Mate mitts were all designed for this yarn!
