Why Scottish Mill Cashmere Feels Different
Johnstons of Elgin has handled cashmere since 1851, when James Johnston brought the fibre into the business. Ply is the number of yarn strands twisted together before knitting: a 2-ply knit is the classic everyday weight, and higher ply counts make a denser, warmer jumper. The knitwear is made at the Hawick mill, and the woven coats, capes and shirts start as cloth on the looms in Elgin, so the house controls each piece from yarn to finished garment.

The house has woven estate tweeds since the 1840s, and its women’s line runs from classic crew neck and V neck jumpers to cardigans, cashmere lounge pieces and woven coats and capes.
