This ensures superior softness, strength, and longevity.</p> <p data-start="1059" data-end="1568"><strong data-start="82" data-end="114">Gepard Garn Cashmere Klassik</strong> is <strong data-start="1075" data-end="1115">carefully washed before being balled</strong>, a process in which intentionally lose 10–12% of the fiber weight. This washing step opens up the fibers, allowing air to enter the yarn and create its signature volume. Skipping this step would make the yarn cheaper to produce—but far less luxurious. By pre-washing, we ensure you receive a yarn with incomparable loft, softness, and performance, ultimately allowing you to use <strong data-start="1498" data-end="1513">fewer balls</strong> for your project and enjoy a superior finished result.</p> <p data-start="1059" data-end="1568">Cashmere is naturally durable and becomes even softer with every wash. If you’re gifting a hand-knit shawl, we recommend giving it a gentle wash beforehand to enhance its beautiful feel.</p> <p><strong data-start="615" data-end="671">Made in Italy</strong></p>
