When was cashmere first produced?

Cashmere production dates back more than a thousand years, with the earliest weaving centers in Kashmir, India, and Nepal. The term cashmere derives from Kashmir, where artisans hand-spun and wove luxurious shawls as early as the 13th century. Modern manufacturing now combines this heritage with computerized flat-knitting machines and WholeGarment® technology, enabling OEM factories like ours to create fine-gauge sweaters with consistent quality and lower MOQs.
