Are cashmere sweaters expensive?

Yes, cashmere sweaters are generally expensive because the fiber is sourced from the soft undercoat of cashmere goats, mainly in Mongolia, China, and Nepal. Each goat produces only about 150 grams of usable fiber annually, which is then hand-combed, sorted, and spun into fine yarn. The rarity, manual labor, and craftsmanship involved—especially in Italian or Scottish mills—make genuine cashmere a luxury textile prized for softness and longevity.
