Hats for small kids

Hi...

I just like the picture of Henry in our wonderfully cosy cashmere hats.

Henry has quite a big head !   So I should think these will fit most kids up to about 4 or 5 years old.

Only £19.50 !!  100% cashmere and 4ply for extra thickness .


This cashmere hat is available from www.mypashmina.co.uk

So far this option is available on  classic 7030 pashmina shawls and stoles and cashmere hot water bottle covers .. but it will be gradually added to every product on the website.

Banavata - 80% Bamboo/20% Cashmere

Hi,

I have just made some new photos of our Banavata pashminas.

These pashminas are 80% bamboo / 20% cashmere ,  they measure 60cm x 190cm,  they weigh 180 grams,  so a slightly heavier fabric than the 70% cashmere pashminas (as you would expect).

They have a diamond weave.

The reason for doing new photos is because these pashminas are dyed with vegetable dyes, so the colours are gorgeous but quite subtle. The previous pictures just were not showing them properly, hopefully the new ones are truer.
The price is £59.50 , and you can buy one at www.mypashmina.co.uk

We have 10 colours in stock.

A customer commented on these as follows...
"I just received my 80% Bamboo 20% Cashmere stole, and I’m amazed at how beautifully soft and incredibly smooth it is. Weightier than your cashmere, drapes exceptionally well, having about 10 or so of your cashmere pashmina's, I am also absolutely delighted with this one too, a bit more of a sheen to the fabric, but only slightly so, I would highly recommend this fibre to others to try"

Thanks for reading

New Pashminas - also for men

These new pashminas are amazingly soft.  I have just photographed them and like most of our products, i have to say they are much better in real life than in the pictures...

The pure cashmere is very warm and they will get even better the more you use them.

They are 100% Cashmere, 2ply, 28 count yarn.  They measure 45x200cm, They have an open end - (no tassels)  We have 5 colours in stock.

www.mypashmina.co.uk

Nice and handy comment from a lovely customer!


I though this might be useful to anyone considering buying a ring shawl.


Dear Mypashmina team

I just wanted to write and thank you for my beautiful ring shawl which arrived today.  And for the brilliant service: I received it in under 24 hours without paying for priority delivery!

The shawl feels so luxuriously soft and I love the subtle colour of it.  I've found that "pashminas" vary - even though they all state that they are 70% cashmere/30% silk, some are soft and others feel as harsh as wool.  I have very sensitive skin, can't wear wool and thought I was taking a bit of a chance ordering 100% cashmere but I am so glad I did - this feels gorgeous.

I can see that I will be tempted to order again in future!

With all best wishes
LE

PS if you wanted to know how I found you - I'm very "into" personal colour analysis and I found the link on one of the PCA blogs I read, which happens to be based in Australia.  Colour matching is so important if you've "had your colours done" - I've become slightly obsessional about mine!



note:
We have ring shawls (90x200cm) in stock, and we have just added ring stoles (70x200cm) to our range. The stole size comes with an open fringe and the shawl size comes with tassels - www.mypashmina.co.uk

Namaste Banepa

Almost since we started we have been raising money for our favourite cause in Nepal.

It is called Namaste Banepa and they help children from poor families to go to school. http://www.namastebanepa.com/

This is achieved by a combination of buying the books , uniforms and equipment that the kids need  and encouraging the parents to allow their kids to go to school rather than work at home.

It is entirely run by voluntary efforts. All running costs are covered by the volunteers.

In effect, we need to raise about £100 to keep 1 child in school for 1 year.

Over the last year, our lovely customers donated  £564.34.  We have added a little over £250 to this amount.  This means together 8/9 kids will get to stay in school for another year, whereas otherwise they would not.

If you feel like contributing, there is the option at the checkout on our website. www.mypashmina.co.uk

What lovely customers we have !

Thanks to "MP" who sent this today!  We love receiving praise !


"Hi,


I should start by telling you that I rarely write reviews good or bad, but I have just been so impressed by your company and your products I felt I had to tell you.


I picked up my pashminas from my local sorting office today (I missed the courier on Friday) I purchased the rio red with Swarovski crystals and the jacquard white. Opened the package up when I got home, they are absolutely stunning, so, so, so, so, so, BEAUTIFUL!!! I cannot wait to wear them :-)


The Entire online buying experience with your co was fantastic, from the easy to navigate website, prompt order confirmation and despatch, the email from you customer service dept re-clarifying how the charge would appear on my statement, everything... First class!


This may have been my first purchase from Mypashmina, but I can guarantee it most definitely will not be my last!! :-)


Thanks and kind regards,
MP

Knitwear Is Dead, Long Live Knitwear!

Don't forget, with the imminent arrival of our new Knitwear ranges (expected in the next couple of months) there shall be one or two of our current styles slipping out of favour and fading into history. And if that isn't dramatic enough to tempt you, how about the fact that almost all of our current knitwear offerings are heavily discounted and with the codeword yummy you can get a further 10% off.
This polo for example is reduced to £54 from £69, and you can get a further £5.40 off with the discount code. Priced to move I think is the expression!

All the best

We wish you a Merry Christmas




...and a Happy New Year!

We hope you all have had a great 2011, and here's looking forward to an even better 2012!

Many thanks to everyone who has supported us this year, by buying our pashminas or by sending kind messages, all very much appreciated.

2012 is shaping up to be a big year as in the early Spring we shall receive the first boxes of our new knitwear ranges. We have been looking forward to this for a long time now so it is great to feel the date getting closer. Keep your eyes on the site for more info.

My own personal favourite item of this year has been the new style of Angelweave pashminas. These look and feel softer than ever, and the new colours really add to that feeling of luxury. If you are looking for a colour we don't stock, we can even make it for you!



Once again, we hope you all have a wonderful holiday, and see you back here in 2012!

All the best

Welcome to winter!


The temperature here in Sweden has really dropped over the last few days, it was 4 degrees when I walked to the bus stop this morning....bbbrrrrrrr!!! What a lovely morning though, crisp and cold with the smell of wood smoke in the air. Inevitably my thoughts turned to dark nights, frosty mornings, snow and of course Christmas!

I'm not one to advocate early advertising for Christmas in general but I've just been reminded by Stuart that the last date to order custom made items in time for Christmas is the 16th November.

So why not light the fire, sit down with a nice cup of hot chocolate or glass of mulled wine and get into the festive spirit with Mypashmina! We have gifts to suit all budgets, new stock arriving including gorgeous new colours of our classic Ring Shawl, and beautiful new additions to our Angelweave range. On top of all this we will be adding a mass of clearance items to the site - keep checking in and you may get a real bargain!

Thankyou - Mypashmina Customers

I have just added up the donations to NamasteBanepa from Mypashmina customers for the last year.

The total was £609.35. Thank you very much on behalf of the children helped by Namaste Banepa.

This years total is about one-third of the previous year. This quite clearly shows the impact a recession has on charitable giving. It's unfortunate , but understandable.

In the year we received 3 donations of £50 , so as promised have added £150 to the total.

The total of £759 is enough to sponsor about 15 children through school for a year , so it will make a real difference to those peoples lives.

The person running Namaste Banepa is Sudarson Karki ( wavetex@wlink.com.np ) . If you are in Kathmandu, he would be happy to hear from you. www.namastebanepa.com
