Why Cashmere?

Cashmere comes from the fine undercoat of the cashmere goat, a naturally insulating fiber known for its soft hand and light feel. For a throw, that balance matters. The fiber creates warmth without unnecessary weight, making it suited to a bed, sofa, guest room, or evening by the fire.

At Nantucket Looms, cashmere is chosen for touch, drape, color, and longevity. Our throws are woven in a signature chevron structure, allowing saturated hues and tonal shifts to appear subtly.

How Each Cashmere Throw is Made

Our cashmere yarn begins with fibers sourced from Inner Mongolia, then travels to Scotland to be cleaned, sorted, and spun. From there, the yarn comes to our second-floor weaving studio at 51 Main Street on Nantucket.

Each throw is handwoven using time-honored techniques. Our weavers prepare the loom, guide the yarn through its signature chevron structure, finish the fringe, and sew the Nantucket Looms label as the final touch.

Choosing A Cashmere Throw

For Bedrooms

Soft blues, whites, and pale neutrals create a finished layer at the foot of the bed. The gentle weight of cashmere brings warmth while preserving a refined, composed look.

For Living Rooms

Navy, deep blue, forest green, and rich neutral cashmere throws bring depth to a sofa or reading chair. The chevron weave gives each shade subtle movement without overwhelming the room.

For Gifting

Whites, creams, and soft hues carry a sense of occasion. A handwoven cashmere throw is especially suited to weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, and housewarmings, where the gift will be enjoyed for years to come.

Caring for a Cashmere Throw

Cashmere rewards gentle care. Nantucket Looms recommends dry cleaning cashmere blankets and storing them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid washing, wringing, hanging, or twisting the throw, as those actions can disturb the fiber and shape.

Some pilling can occur with fine natural fibers, especially where the textile meets friction. Use a lint brush or cashmere comb with a light hand. If a throw needs additional attention, Nantucket Looms invites customers to contact the team for guidance.
