Cashmere and the Peanut Free Diet

Cashmere is a type of wool that is collected from the soft undercoat of Kashmir goats. Known for its softness, warmth, and lightweight properties, cashmere is considered a luxury fiber in the textile industry. The production of cashmere involves combing the goats during the molting season to collect the fine underdown fibers, which are then processed to create yarn.
