Actually I have a cashmere cardi and I wouldn't normally have
something that nice as they tend to be very expensive, but just before
Xmas Asda had cashmere cardis and sweaters for around £30, which was
very cheap. I haen't actually needed to wash the cardi yet but have
washed the sweater I got as a gift and it washed very nicely - by
hand.
IME (and I accept no liability for the consequences) cashmere is much
better washed than dry cleaned. It comes up softer and smells nicer,
too. But I turn it inside out, put it in a bag, and bung it into the
machine on the wool setting.

Hey, there's two top tips in one day on Umra :-) But what sort of bag - not brown paper, I assume? ;-)

You can buy bags specifically for putting in washing machines, gumrat. Lakeland Limited (wot used to be Lakeland Plastics) often has them. Next time we're doing an order or going to one of their shops, I can see if they've got one if you're interested. Also useful for separating ones undies from the rest of the wash.
