mYak
mYak produce pashminas, scarves, throws, blankets, and accessories of the highest quality baby yak wool sourced directly from communities that support the survival of the Tibetan nomadic way of life. Born of a passion for, and commitment to the nomadic communities of the Tibetan Plateau, mYak weave the natural strength of the Tibetan Plateau with the finest Italian artisanal traditions. It is a project conceived from a deep understanding of Tibet and the will to help preserve its traditions.
To spin and weave the baby yak wool, mYak has partnered with a family-run mill in Italy with a strong tradition of environmental stewardship, who are able to spin and weave the highest quality textiles from even the finest fibers. Yak wool is most commonly dark brown, although it can also be dark grey, black and occasionally, white. Choosing not to dye, bleach or treat the wool with any chemicals, mYak preserve its natural color and beauty. Paying the highest price for the finest fiber on market, mYak buys directly from more than 2,500 families, to ensure that the greatest possible benefit goes to those at the source.
