link?

is it really worth the £££££?

purplepeony · 01/12/2009 20:08

Yes it is worth the £££s. You can get decent cash for around £50 now- it is soft and warm.
try M&S, JLewis, Uniqlo for cheapish stuff.

Have you washed it yet? Do you sweat in it? Does it pile (or how do you call it when it gets pilling)?

FreeGeorgeJackson · 01/12/2009 20:54

Does it have to be hand washed?

LetThemEatCake · 01/12/2009 20:57

I live in cashmere in the colder months. Totally worth it.

dry clean occasionally, otherwise hand wash cycle in machine with items in a laundry bag/ pillowcase

store with camphor balls

pills far less than nylony mix things

and feels like a treat, as well as being warm etc - practical and stylish, what more does one want?
and warmth without bulk too = plus 100 points!!

FreeGeorgeJackson · 01/12/2009 20:57

yes and notably warmer than lambswool which i like

half price at tesco

jemart · 01/12/2009 22:35

Anyone got the tesco cashmere joggers? any good? They look nice but I've not had knitted trousers before so no idea what to expect. I may yet chicken out and just get the hoody.

I seem to remember you ridiculed my cashmere tracksuit Now say sorry

jemart · 01/12/2009 22:52

did I? when? are you sure? methinks this may be a case of mistaken identity, I love cashmere! but if it was me, I beg forgiveness. Now spill, is it any good or not?

noddyholder · 01/12/2009 22:53

No not you!FGJ

jemart · 01/12/2009 22:55
