Because cashmere sweater production generally goes through more than a dozen processes, such as weaving, sewing, felting, brushing, ironing, packaging and so on. One of the most important processes is felting. To put it simply, felting is to add a felting agent to warm water for compound washing, so as to produce a layer of fluff on the surface of cashmere sweater and increase the feel of cashmere sweater.

It is conceivable that in the process of making suede, a small amount of fluff will inevitably fall off, that is, hair loss. The next process is brushing, that is, brushing off the floating hair on the surface with a brushing machine or a manual brush.

Cashmere washing and maintenance:

Cashmere fiber is fine and smooth, light, soft and elastic, which can effectively resist the invasion of outside air and keep body temperature. It is known as fiber diamond and gold in clothes! Its fiber fineness is relatively small, its length is short, and its crimp number is less, which makes the fiber in the yarn have less cohesive force and more exposed hairiness, and it is easy to slip off the fabric under the action of external force, resulting in pilling.

Therefore, the pilling rate can be effectively reduced by choosing cashmere fiber with relatively long length (the price is higher than that of short fiber). From the point of processing technology, improper processing of raw materials will damage the length of fiber, and excessive pilling (pursuing handle) will directly lead to pilling.
