I love wearing cowls all year round, but especially in the winter. What I can’t stand is when I have to take my gloves or mittens off to use my phone or get my keys out. I think the perfect solution for this is to have a pocket cowl. A long infinity scarf that you can wrap a few times around your neck, or let it hang long. The secret? a kangaroo-type pocket at the bottom of the cowl to keep your hands warm in when you don’t feel like putting on those gloves or mittens. You could even keep that pesky phone in there as well!

A note about the name: Skadi is the nordic goddess of Winter. Since I designed this in the Icelandic colorway, I thought it was a perfect name.
