The fabric is first woven and is then "boiled" and agitated in hot water and suds, shrinking the fabric without the use of chemicals. The result is a tighter and more dense material, usually shrinking anywhere from twenty to fifty percent. Wool that has been boiled is thought to be warmer, softer, more durable, and windproof.

Yak is an animal that lives high in Himalayan mountains and is accustomed extremely low temperatures. The down layer of wool that is soft and next to the skin is brushed out each spring and is then made into yarn for weaving. It is soft like the high altitude goats that give us cashmere and keeps you very warm. Yaks live at a staggering 13.000 to 16,500 ft.

The Yak wool is non-allergenic. There is no lanolin in the fiber; thus, making it easy to clean and is hypoallergenic.

So anyone that is allergic to sheep wool can wear or cover oneself with a Yak Shawl or Throw. Its naturally anti-bacterial too, so unlike synthetic garments it will stay odor-free for many days at a time. Unlike sheep's wool, the scales of yak fiber are in a waved mosaic pattern, resulting in a very smooth fiber that does not itch. The Himalayan sheep is known as"Bheda" sheep and are closely related to the Himalayan goats, especially "O Aries" and bred in a number of domesticated varieties. The sheep wool used in this blend is woven exclusively from the soft highland sheep wool. Photos are an estimate of the actual colors and patterns but are more accurate than this description: the Multi-Color - Predominately Shades of Plum/Sand/Black Colors [these colors are difficult to describe -- are presented to assist you in your review of the photos] - Paisley Tribal Patterns, depending on the lighting and the quality of your computer monitor. As the reviews mention, the colors are actually far more vivid and deeper than the photos. The Photos are taken in sunlight to show the brightness of the colors and are more muted in shadow. The description we use for our merchandise is based on our suppliers representations to us. We do not manufacture our own materials so we rely on what we are told by our suppliers; who in turn relies on the weavers; who in turn relies on the yarn merchants, etc. When a supplier advises us that he knows or believes that the yarn is a mixed blend, we note so in our descriptions. If our supplier advises that the yarn mixture is predominately Yak or Sheep wool, then the merchandise is described as Yak Wool or Sheep Wool or some combination of both. If the supplier informs us that they believe the merchandise is a blend of Viscose or Polar Fleece, we note that it is a blend of these materials plus the Yak and Sheep wool in our descriptions. We do not note anywhere in our product descriptions that an item is 100% or Pure unless we have a strong assurance that it is possibly a true statement. If you require any additional information about the material content of the items we sell please send us a message.
