BC Garn Summer in Kashmir is a wonderfully soft cotton yarn with 10% cashmere. The soft and light combination of cotton and cashmere makes the yarn popular for year-round use. There is also a story behind the yarn's name from the image of the yarn's intended use. Kashmir is a region in the Himalayas at an altitude of 1700 meters, where summers are mild and sometimes even cool. The purpose of the Summer in Kashmir yarn is to provide all the properties that are required from clothes in varying temperatures. Clothes made from Summer in Kashmir yarn can be used versatilely in different climate zones, indoors and outdoors. The small amount of cashmere in the yarn gives the yarn a delicate softness that can be seen when holding the yarn up to the light, without making the yarn "fluffy hairy", which is why the yarn is also perfect for baby clothes.
Summer in Kashmir yarn is ethically produced and has GOTS certification. The cotton used in the yarn is grown on GOTS certified farms in Turkey and the cashmere comes from Mongolia. The yarn is spun and dyed in Turkey.
