Abrakadabra
Abrakadabra is an ultra-soft and long knitted scarf made from 100% extra-fine merino wool, featuring an enchanting design that’s visible on both sides, offering a reversibel look.
Wolvis and visual artist and writer Maarten Inghels designed four magical scarves together. Maarten incorporated spells from medieval grimoires into oil paint drawings, which in turn were translated into scarves. We believe that a scarf from this series will offer you protection and that you will be able to disappear (in it) at the right moment... Magic!

• Inspiration
The term "abrakadabra" has its origins in Roman times, where it was used as an amulet to relieve pain and illness. The amulet consisted of an equilateral triangle of 11 lines with one letter disappearing each time, and it was believed that the word was an image that could reduce illness. In Aramaic, "abera kedabera" means "I will create when I speak," but today the term is used in Dutch to denote something incomprehensible.
Hand wash or machine wash at maximum 30°C. Please use a wool detergent without fabric softener. Do not tumble dry and dry flat.
