What could be softer than cashmere I hear you ask? The answer is Cashmink. Its 20% softer than cashmere (how do they measure this? Is there a snuggleometer somewhere in a Swiss laboratory?). Its made in Germany and has many advantages apart from its cosiness. Its an acrylic fabric so machine washable water resistant and hypo-allergenic. Oh and it really does feel fabulous. It is a blue overcheck with a hint of beige and finished with tassels. Perfect as a treat for yourself or a very well received Christmas present.
