Wool, one of the oldest textile fibres known,
has survived the test of time because of its unique natural
properties. Wool is natures own insulator, warm in winter
and cool in summer because it absorbs moisture vapour. In
cold weather even a little moisture on the skin becomes cold,
quickly reducing body temperature. However by absorbing body
moisture a dry layer of air is left next to the skin and this
helps to hold in body heat, little pockets of air are trapped
between the fibres. this lining of still air trapped inside
the pashmina wool act as an insulator. Still air is one of
the best insulators found in nature. Pashmina wool is the
softest warmest wool available in the world.
