First seen as part of TOFT's METAMORPHOSIS exhibition at the Knitting and Stitching Show in 2022, Ophelia the Tailed Jay Butterfly has now officially fluttered into the menagerie. Inspired by the tailed jay butterfly which is native to Southeast Asia and Australia, she looks vibrant in TOFT's Silver and Charcoal DK with spots crocheted in Sage, but will crochet beautifully in any of our bright colour spectrum.
