fjords are like chasms ripping deep into the earth, filled with dark waters and hidden depths. if you place your face in one and look down, you can’t see the bottom, which is somehow both claustrophobic and indicative of too much space to fathom. it’s hard to tear your eyes away from the shifting shades of blue as you look deeper and deeper though. this cowl also has a length longer than you might imagine, but unlike its watery inspiration, you won’t get lost in its depths. you’ll just be cozy in a beautiful cocoon of wooly gradient blues.
