LǎoLao Studios, has just launched the most perfect and stylish solution for this winter season: a collection of beanies, handmade with love from grandmother artisans using premium cashmere sourced from Mongolian farmers.

The new cashmere knitwear brand, LǎoLao, embraces timeless designs and impeccable craftsmanship. With sizes ranging from ‘Newborn’ through ‘Adult’, it’s perfectly fit for the entire family. Additionally, all the beanies are neutral and match any outfit to keep you warm and fashionable all season long.

LǎoLao’s cashmere beanies should definitely be a luxurious staple for you to invest in this season and accompany your cozy winter coat. It’s high-quality composition -that with proper care, should last for years-, as well as a flattering and comfortable fit and silky-soft sensation you get only from cashmere is worth every penny.

Why cashmere is worth the investment: Cashmere comes at a heftier price because cashmere yarn comes from the fluffy undercoat of cashmere goats, which makes for a softer and warmer fiber than sheep’s wool. Fascinatingly, cashmere goats are a type and not a breed; according to the Cashmere Goat Association, almost all goats can grow cashmere, but only selectively bred flocks produce it “in significant amounts”. Moreover, unlike wool -which comes from sheep-, cashmere works better to trap in heat, keeping you warm sans any extra bulkiness. What’s more, cashmere is hygroscopic, which means “it absorbs and releases water readily, so helps to regulate body temperature and, when spun in finer counts, works as a trans-seasonal fiber too.” And finally, perhaps the biggest benefit; cashmere is a natural, renewable fiber that, at the end of its life, will simply biodegrade.

In Mandarin, ‘lǎolao’ is an affectionate term for maternal grandmothers – and the brand’s story begins with the founder’s mother, who is the loving lǎolao of her two children. The sustainable collection presents effortless wardrobe staples in three classic styles: Cable, Ribbed and Braided. The cashmere yarns used for the Milk, Oatmeal, and Taupe shades are utilized in their most natural state: undyed and free from any chemicals throughout the farm-to-yarn process. The playful pom-poms are removable, allowing for a versatile look and easy wash.
