2 ply, 4 ply, 6 ply, 12 ply... How to decide which one?
The thickness and the weight of the cloth or any item in Cashmere wool depends on the number of ply used for weaving. For the same process of weaving, the cloth you wear provides an extraordinary feeling of smoothness and softness from the Cashmere wool, according to the quantity of ply that is used for its weaving.
Basically, a pullover made with 2 ply is ideal for summer or springtime. And yet, its exceptional thermal qualities allow the wearing of it at any time in the year. Try wearing it in the winter with a windcheater and feel warm and snug. For the same thickness, a Cashmere wool pullover is much warmer than one made from sheep wool.
- A pullover made with 2 ply represents the largest share of the market. The main reason is the fact that the price is cheapest (the more ply you use, the more expensive it is). The other reason is that the possibility of finding thick pullovers is quite rare. As for us, we offer you a wide range of this kind of cloth from 6 to 12 ply for winter and autumn.
- A pullover made with 4 ply is as thick as a regular and classic woollen jersey. This mid thickness may be preferred by people doubtful of the cloth's thinness, especially the men. It can be used without a vest or a jacket as an inter-season top in mild weather when there is no wind.
- A pullover made with 6 to 12 ply is definitively a winter cloth. This thickness will make you feel the exceptional quality of the Cashmere wool and its natural softness.
