Zegna Baruffa specialise in combing out the finest micron merino fibres and then using special spinning techniques to make merino yarns that feel almost like cashmere, hence their cashwool branding. This gorgeous yarn is twisted by them from 5 strands of the 2/30NM cashwool we also sell, and branded Maxi.

Zegna’s wash instructions for cashwool give ratio of 40 liters of water to 1kg, wash at 25/30C including softener for 2/3 minutes, spin dry at 800 cycles for 3 to 5 minutes.
