Depending upon the quality of the Cashmere yarn for making the fabric, a real Pashmina is also very costly and expensive. The range of the Cashmere thread remains from 12 to 18 microns thickness on the basis of the hair used for making it. If the hair comes from the belly and neck of the baby goats, then it will be thick up to only 12 to 14 microns. It is the softest as well as the most precious thread from which the costliest item made can reach up to more than $300. However, hair from the underbelly of tan adult goat has the thickness of around 14 to 18 microns and the Pashmina made from this hair can be bought at the price of $100. The price also depends upon the brand, much higher price may be charged by the big stores for the cashmere yarn used is of higher quality. A Jacquard or embroidered weave will be charged more in comparison to the work involved to make it.
