When 'Kaschmir' (cashmere) describes the material itself, it is an uncountable noun. It is then often used without an article.
Ich trage im Winter gerne Kaschmir, weil es so warm ist.
I like wearing cashmere in winter because it is so warm.
To describe what something is made of, you can use the preposition 'aus' (made of/from) or form a compound word. Both forms are very common.
Ich habe mir einen Pullover aus Kaschmir gekauft.
I bought myself a sweater made of cashmere.
Because cashmere is a luxury material, it is often described with adjectives such as 'weich' (soft), 'edel' (fine/elegant), 'fein' (fine), or 'teuer' (expensive).
Diese Decke ist aus edlem Kaschmir gefertigt.
This blanket is made from fine cashmere.
