Pashmina is a fine, soft, woolen fabric sourced from the undercoat of certain Himalayan goats. Commonly used for scarves, shawls, and wraps, it’s prized for warmth and luxurious texture. The word also refers to items made from this material and, by extension, to the fiber itself. The pronunciation emphasizes two syllables, with a soft “sh” and a trailing “ma” ending.
