Why Handspun Cashmere Creates Unique Textures
Softness is not a surface — it’s a structure. At vonoz cashmere, our Kashmiri Art Collection begins with yarn spun not by machines, but by hand. This choice shapes everything: the way the shawl breathes, drapes, and feels against the skin.
The Imperfect Beauty of the Charkha
Handspinning on the charkha allows the fiber to retain its full loft and integrity. Unlike uniform, tightly twisted machine yarn, handspun cashmere features slight variations in thickness — creating a natural, cloudlike texture that responds to your body’s movement and temperature.
Lightweight Yet Warm
This irregularity is not a flaw, but a virtue. The air pockets between the fibers help insulate without adding bulk. The result: a scarf that’s featherlight, yet astonishingly warm — ideal for year-round use, especially in transitional climates.
Each Yarn Tells a Story
Every skein of handspun yarn carries traces of its spinner’s rhythm — a tactile signature of craft and care. At vonoz, we celebrate these micro-irregularities as signs of authenticity. They are what make our cashmere shawls unlike any other.
From Fiber to Form
When woven, handspun yarn creates a matte, almost linen-like surface — elegant without gloss, structured without stiffness. Its organic feel complements both Kani weaving and Sozni embroidery, and remains a cornerstone of our quiet luxury philosophy.
