Deep graphite gives this ribbed cashmere scarf a clean, confident outline, with softness and natural warmth held in a neatly proportioned shape. The solid charcoal-gray tone leaves the ribbing clearly defined, bringing soft structure to a simple winter outfit. Knitted in Nepal from 100% Himalayan cashmere, this 69 × 10 inch unisex scarf offers length for a loose drape or a comfortable neck loop. Dry clean, or hand wash cold and lay flat to dry, to care for the soft cashmere. For the artisan community represented by Pokhara Nepal Artisans, access to textile training helps open work opportunities that are otherwise scarce. Enjoy the small daily pleasure of choosing something so soft to wear.

Artisan Profile
Nepalese and Tibetan Himalayan cashmere is renowned for its exceptional softness, warmth, and lightweight feel. Cashmere comes from the incredibly fine undercoat of goats, making it naturally insulating without feeling heavy. In fact, it can take the wool from an average of three goats to produce a single scarf.
Our cashmere scarves and beanies are handmade in Pokhara, Nepal, by blind, deaf, and disabled artisans. We partner with a local nonprofit organization that provides training, tools, and ongoing support to help create meaningful employment and greater independence through the art of weaving.
For many people with disabilities in Nepal, access to stable work can be extremely limited. Weaving provides an opportunity to earn an income, build confidence, develop valuable skills, and create a greater sense of independence within their families and communities. The organization also supports the wider disabled and underserved community by providing white canes, hearing aids, wheelchairs, food, medicine, and essential supplies to care homes, as well as distributing aid to communities affected by earthquakes and landslides.
Beautifully handmade and connected to a cause we deeply value, these cashmere pieces are some of our absolute favorites.
