Description

Himalaya’s yak  raised by nomadic herders and local shepherds on the Himalayan Plateau which 3000 meters above sea level.
The yaks provide nomads with almost everything they need to survive. Yak milk is used to make butter, curd and cheese—all integral parts of their diet. Yak wool is used to make tents, carpets, blankets, shawls, and slingshots, which are the only weapons nomads have to protect their animals against predators. Even yak dung is put to use—as cooking fuel and to warm the tents during cold winters.

Each spring,the yak begin to lose their soft wool under layer belly. In a process that is painless for the animals, the herders collect the loose wool and bring it to market.

The softness of yak wool scarves are similar to those made of our cashmere.
