Knitting for Olive | Compatible Cashmere
Irresistibly Soft 100% Cashmere
If you’re looking for something irresistibly soft, Knitting for Olive’s Compatible Cashmere is a beautiful choice. This lace-weight yarn is made from 100% cashmere, offering a smooth, gentle alternative to mohair. It works beautifully on its own for lightweight, luxurious knits, or held together with another yarn like Merino, it adds softness without the fluff.
The yarn is sourced responsibly from cashmere goats in Mongolia and China. In Mongolia, the goats roam freely across open grasslands with their nomadic herders. In China, they’re cared for on farms during the colder months, then released to graze once the pastures are ready. Each year, Knitting for Olive visits the herders and farms to ensure the animals are treated with respect and care.
