Don't toss it, recycle it!
I've already done how to dye it, so I'm not going to redo that. This lens is to get you to thinking about doing your Cashmeres, especially for the winter, in a new way. This is not an article of clothing that you want to practice on coloring/dyeing start out the gate. So, my suggestion to you is to go to a professional such as knitweardocoter.com and leave it to the pros. These people, for example, are known by professional companies and will shoot you straight. If it can't be dyed, they'll tell you. So, on to cashmere dyeing we go.

Ways to keep it in or closet and NOT feed the trash can!
The first option is to go to the pros. You may have a neighborhood favorite. You may not. If you do great! Run to them today and drop it off. If you don't and you don't want to experiment (experimenting is never good with a favorite), I am suggesting you go to www.knitweardoctor.com . They are more than professionals and will treat your precious piece of Cashmere with the love and respect it and you deserve.
Also, remember, there's nothing wrong with getting references for their serveses. Any, dyer worth anything, should be willing to give you references or their work. If they don't or hesistate, look somewhere else. That's your first clue that something is likely to go wrong. Ask your freinds what they do for dyeing. Ask relatives. They tend to be honest, brutelly honest at some points. So, don't overlook them.
What about co-workers. Everyone know someone that is always dressed to the hilt, and we look and wonder how they do it. Don't be shy, nows the time to ask they. They take pride in their clothes and always make sure they have the finest and best take care of theirs, so follow suit!
If you are an experienced Dyer, they Dye it. If you aren't then get some practice to! Theres lots of steps to dyeing. Lots of subtle things you need like types of dyes, of the type of clothing you are using. Cool and hot water items are not the same. And, lots lots more. So, don't take a chance if its new or you. If you are set on dyeing anyway, practice, practice practice, with items that don't really matter you. THEN, and only then, step up and consider doing your favorite. You don't want or precious to go for a size 10 to -10 in one easy lesson.
