Cashmere is great but I highly recommend trying this selection of throws made from yak down in persimmon, chocolate and creme. I've received a scarf by Shokay last year and the quality is amazing: it's soft, beautiful and very warm. Their products are made from yak down in a remote location called Shokay located in the mountainous Himalayan regions. These fibers are hand-combed from the yaks that dwell there, whose ancient existences continue to serve as a life source for the Tibetan herders. So when you shop at Shokay, you are not only getting a one of a kind product, you are also supporting the local community. Available at Shokay.com.
