Second Cashmere

Second Cashmere A considered collection of secondhand and recycled cashmere. Restored and manufactured in Scotland.

We repair, restore, rework, and unravel cashmere garments sourced from textile recyclers, to create well designed and well-made collections for your home and wardrobe. Our ethos centres on circularity, interrupting the waste system to give new purpose to discarded pure cashmere garments.

Here are some of our top tips for looking after your cashmere (save this post for later!)

Wash gently, dry flat, store with cedar or lavender, comb away bobbles, and don’t worry about the odd hole - it’s so easy to repair!

Small habits make for longer-lasting cashmere and if you look after your cashmere it can last generations.

Layering season is here, and we couldn’t be happier about it!

It’s the most tempting time of year to buy something new, so let’s make it secondhand instead.

Every piece here has already had a life before this one. Restored and ready for the next cold snap.

Some behind the scenes bits from our shoot in July. It was so nice to open up our studio and take some photographs in our own space (that we’d be making over earlier in 2026). Any one who has seen our studio knows how wonderful our windows are and we really wanted to make the most of them!

It’s just over a week until we can show some of these cashmere knits off at our first Second-Hand Pop Up Shop of the season and we actually can’t wait!

We’ll be in the Southside of Glasgow on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th September - see you there!

Mending cashmere knitwear is our happy place and having the knowledge to repair clothes is empowering. The high street is full of plastic these days with clothes, especially knitwear, becoming bobbly and knackered-looking after just a few wears and better yet - it’s all so expensive! And bearing in mind the raw material cost of polyester and acrylic fibre is pennies, we think it’s utter madness to be spending a small fortune on new, badly made clothes, when there are some fantastic alternatives out there.

We think that learning to mend what you already have is a real winner.

There are so many tutorials online as well as workshops in your local area. Looking for ‘introduction to darning your knitwear’ on here (Instagram), TikTok and YouTube and you’ll find lots!

Our studio is tucked away in Glasgow’s East End, a 5-min walk from Bridgeton Station (two stops from Glasgow Central). Ahead of our End of Season Sale this Friday and Saturday, 10-4pm both days. We thought we’d take a minute to show you the route from Bridgeton Station - so you don’t get lost along the way. We hope to see you this weekend!
