Description
An optionally beaded double-wrap eyelet cowl. Named after the kitschy, cold and lifeless beads knit into the pictured product (døden = death in Norwegian), this cowl is nicely warm enough with length to wrap double. Easily modified, this cowl can be made to any length you want for a customized fit.
