What makes cashmere different from other wool?
Cashmere is sourced from the fine undercoat of cashmere goats, offering superior softness and warmth compared to regular wool. M.J. Bale scarves made with cashmere are blended, usually as cotton–cashmere, wool–cashmere, or wool–silk–cashmere mixes—balancing softness, structure, and long-lasting wearability.
What materials are used in M.J. Bale scarves?

How do I prevent pilling on my cashmere scarf?
Can I wear my cashmere scarf in the rain?
M.J. Bale’s cashmere-blend scarves are designed for effortless versatility—soft enough for everyday wear, yet polished for elevated looks. By blending premium fibres like wool or cotton with cashmere, these scarves offer the perfect balance of warmth, breathability, and refined drape.
To minimise pilling on your cashmere-blend scarf, avoid frequent friction from bag straps or rough outerwear. Gently fold and store when not in use. Wash by hand in cold water using a mild wool detergent, and lay flat to dry. Do not wring or twist the fabric. For light pilling, a fabric or cashmere comb can be used gently. Always check the care label for blend-specific instructions.
Cashmere-blend scarves can absorb moisture, so it’s best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. If your scarf gets damp, gently blot with a towel and lay it flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid wringing or hanging while wet to help preserve its softness and shape.
