How to make a wool  Wool is produced in several stages: 1.   1.Shearing: Wool is obtained from sheep by shearing, which removes the wool (wool coat) without harming the animal.

  The Rarity of Cashmere Cashmere is renowned for its extraordinary softness and warmth, but its rarity and the intricacies of its production contribute to its exclusive status. Understanding the origins and production of cashmere reveals why this luxurious fabric is so highly prized. Let’s delve into the factors that make cashmere so rare and what sets its production apart. Cashmere production accounts for only 0.5% of the world`s wool production, which proves the rarity of cashmere. Cashew fiber is collected from cashew goats, hundreds of millions of which live in Mongolia and China. These two countries accounts for 75% of the world`s cashew production. The rest are farms in Central Asia, especially Iran and Afganistan. But this cashew does not reach the quality of the cashews of the Himalayan plateaus where the goats live in better conditions.  Cashmere’s rarity and the meticulous production process contribute to its esteemed status in the world of luxury fabrics.

         **A Stitch in Time**  I never imagined that making wool sweaters would lead me on a journey to rediscover myself. My name is Jolly, I’m thirty-eight, and while I’m quite skilled at knitting, I’m even better at the delicate art of balancing my life. Or at least, that’s what I keep telling myself.  My story begins with the cozy warmth of wool and the rhythmic clack of knitting needles. I've always loved knitting. It’s therapeutic, almost meditative. After years of dreaming about it, I finally opened my own business—a boutique specializing in handmade wool sweaters. It’s been my heart and soul for the past five years. There’s something profoundly satisfying about taking a humble ball of yarn and turning it into something beautiful and comforting.  However, I wasn’t prepared for the complexities of managing a business while keeping my personal life intact. My husband, David, has been my rock through this whole journey, but even the strongest ...
