Pashmina, a Persian word meaning wool, is the finest quality wool, which comes from the underbelly of the goat(Capra Hircus), living in the Himalayas. Pashmina is also known as cashmere wool, because Kashmir was the only place in India, where Pashmina could be woven into shawls and blankets. In recent years, Nepal has created the world's highest quality pashmina product using Tibetan Pashmina. Since the Tibetan plateau provides the ideal environment for Pashmina growth, Pashmina from Tibet is considered to be extra-ordinarily soft and light.
