    Marks & Spencers has them sometimes, usually in their Limited Collection range, also try Costello & Costello on Clarendon St or Dundrum in Dublin.

    I collect pashminas from all over the world, and the Tie Rack ones are lambswool, not cashmere. Most of mine have been bought by lucky globetrotting friends, but I've also bought some good ones myself on Ebay. If you buy a very cheap one, however, it is probably viscose, try putting a lit match to the edge of one of the fringes, and if it melts instead of burns, its viscose.

    Incidently 100 percent cashmere single ply pashminas are light, soft and very warm. Cashmere/silk mix ones are smooth, soft, but not quite as beautiful imo. Try Ebay, but remember, not too cheap!

    Long shot but if you know anyone going to New York they are selling them on the street - 3 for $10. I came back with about 8 and they're all gorgeous! Canal Street is laden with them..
