Ophira

Kari-Helene was being playful at a show and put Florence on her head, she held up the brim with two fingers and said “What do you think”?  Tracy loved it and so Ophira is born!  Reminiscent of walking in corn fields, running your hand against the gently waving seeds… then again, Tracy’s inner hippy might be trying to break free.  She thinks that Ophira is a fabulously fun hat which can be worn in all seasons, at every occasion and will look brilliant!

You can also purchase Ophira Hat as a complete knitting kit or made to order.
