The Hygge Cowl
hygge (noun): a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being…
The Hygge Cowl was designed to be a comfy cozy & easy to wear cowl that you’ll want to grab for day after day.
This fun accessory piece is the perfect layer for extra warmth, whether you’re lounging at home or out and about.
