This cashmere is not only luxurious, but it is environmentally conscious. It uses both new and recycled Italian cashmere, and the production uses less water and energy than standard practices. It also gives the yarn more durability, making it less prone to pilling.
We have collected our favourite patterns for you here on Ravelry that were designed specifically in Nordic Yarn Eco Cashmere Fingering and other high-bloom cashmere, camel, and angora fingering weight yarns. We strongly recommend swatching this yarn before knitting any fitted garments or accessories, and washing and blocking the swatch before measuring gauge, because 100% cashmere transforms beautifully in drape and bloom after first wash.
Note that while Nordic Yarn Eco Cashmere Fingering is classified as fingering weight, it can also be used at a sport weight gauge because it blooms to fill the space.
