Unfortunately a necessity if you love cashmere and want to keep your investment safe. The item is expensive and I do need to buy more. It’s insurance against getting holes in my cashmere. I have a $500.00 garmet that I will probably need to throw out which is very upsetting to me. Hence, the pouch and a lot of cleaning and more bags for newly purchased items. Was too busy working and was not aware what was going on in my closets.
