These gorgeous cashmere ponchos are all hand loomed in Nepal exclusively for the Travel Store. They can be worn 3 ways: A-symetrical across the shoulder like a boat neck, with a V front and longer at the sides, or scooped up into a scarf. They are fabulously lightweight to roll and pack or wear on the plane for extra warmth.
Cashmere goats are brushed for their wool, not shorn, then it is spun into spools of yarn and hand loomed by hearing or sight-impaired people at Helping Hands, an organisation established just to provide young adults with disabilities with work. Any irregularities are part of the unique story.
I have established an ongoing relationship to sell their beautiful products here at the Travel Store as part of my Luxe Travel Collection of products I source from my travels.
