If you want to keep warm this winter, the only fabric that is acceptable to invest in is cashmere. The fibre is derived from cashmere goats and prized for its warming qualities. Fun fact. Cashmere is almost four times warmer than wool. Armed with that knowledge, you would think everyone would have their winter wardrobe decked out in all cashmere. The problem is that a cashmere scarf is not cheap and you can imagine why. Who has the time to be chasing cashmere goats in mountainous regions?
Hope is not lost; some high street brands have an affordable collection to satisfy your needs. This way, you can keep warm without burning a hole through your pocket.
