Balance your energy and shield your spirit with the Protection Sigil Cowl —an intention-filled design inspired by Icelandic magical staves (galdrastafir).

The custom-designed sigil, knit into the fabric using colorwork, features thenumber 4 for stability and the Algiz rune (ᛉ) — a powerful symbol ofprotection, luck, and victory.

As the cowl shifts from one color to another, the magic of duality is mirrored in the knit. It’s a wearable talisman of protection and equilibrium, wrapped snug around your throat chakra and ready to ward off whatever the winds may bring.
