Angelweave Pashmina – 90% Cashmere / 10% Silk – 55x200cm – Dusty Lavender

Dusty Lavender is a muted mauve that leans towards pink, with a powdery softness, and in Angelweave that gentle colour gains a little movement from the uneven hand-spun cashmere and a faint sheen from the silk. It is a lavender pashmina that looks romantic rather than sugary, and it sits well with grey, navy and cream.

The cloth is 90% cashmere and 10% silk, with silk running lengthways as the warp and hand-spun cashmere as the weft. Angelweave is the lightest of our weaves and hangs in soft folds, which makes it a good weight for spring and summer occasions. At 55 × 200 cm it drapes over the shoulders of a dress, or doubles through its loop as a scarf on a cooler evening. Handmade in Nepal.

Caroline found it “exactly the right shade and weight for my June wedding outfit”. Anne says the colour is “exactly as seen on your site”, which helps if you are choosing from the photo, and was pleased with the quality. Buyers of other colours describe the weave as open and uneven, which is what keeps it so light.
