Lang Yarns' Cashmere Light Colors yarn is made from the same base as Cashmere Light. These Light colorways let the artist explore an enjoyable wisp of variegation. Tuning into the natural softness of cashmere, this yarn is not spun. Rather, the cashmere roving is knit loosely with a nylon core and constructed into a chainnette yarn.

Since 2018, Lang Yarns decided to only source their sheep fibers from mulesing-free productions. This controversial procedure is a solution to avoiding infestation from fly maggots (myiasis). Lang Yarns has a helpful resource on their website where a customer can trace their yarn and learn more about the origins of their specific fiber. The "Trace your Yarn" page allows for a deeper understanding of farms, fiber animals, and their shearing processes, all the way to the finished product!
