Has anyone had tichels, specifically pashminas tested for shatnez? Plain, two tone paisley ones, or multicolor.
My local lab is now closed, so until I call them I'm curious if anyone looked into it.

Are they made out of wool?

I suspect not, given their low price.
Some say "pashmina/silk" , others "100% pashmina" but it's inexpensive Chinese stuff.

Most likely I'll have to shlep them to shatnez lab and hopefully get some guidance for the future. I always bring anything that might be wool or linen to the lab.

No, they're viscose, polyester, etc. Definitely not wool and linen.

That's what they felt like to me.
Btw, thank you for your suggestion to use a volumizer. It's awesome.
