The natural fiber obtained from the Cashmere goat, native to the Himalayan region of China and India. The fleece of this goat has long, straight, coarse outer hair of little value; but the small quantity of underhair, or down, is made into luxuriously soft woollike yarns with a characteristic highly napped finish. This fine cashmere fiber is obtained by frequent combings during the shedding season. A microscopic examination reveals that cashmere is a much finer fiber than mohair or wool fiber obtained from sheep. The scales being less distinct and farther apart, the fiber appears to be made of telescoped sections.
