A.VERIFIED ANSWERfact-checked by tutors
Ans: Pashmina shawls are expensive shawls in the markets of Ladakh and in the other parts of India. The reason being that the wool comes from mountain goats called Changra and only a small portion of the goat hair can be used to make pure Pashmina. The manufacturing of shawls requires great skill. The wool is famous for its softness, warmth lightness and beautiful dyes.
