The Restoration Process
Every skein of Marshmallow began as a carefully selected cashmere garment before becoming the yarn in your hands. This is some of the most resilient 100% cashmere you’ll find.
Passed through a meticulous multi-step restoration process (including sanitizing, unraveling, winding, washing & steaming) to gently revive its natural bloom, then hand-wound into a luxuriously soft skein.
It’s now ready for a new life on your needles.
