60/40 Pashmina and Cotton Before the introduction of the silk blends a few years ago, this was the standard Pashmina shawl. Thicker and warmer than the silk blends, 60/40 shawls have a fuzzy texture. This is what we wrap up in during the winter in our unheated Kathmandu office! Hand woven, 80x32 inches, fringed and tassled. |
