Wrap your newborn in warmth and creativity with this beautifully hand-knitted hat, crafted locally using Opal Wool – Hundertwasser 894. Each piece is unique, inspired by Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, whose vibrant works celebrate the harmony between nature and human life through colour, form, and organic design.

The Hundertwasser 894 colourway is based on his 1987 painting “Positive Soul Trees – Negative Houses of Men” (Positive Seelenbäume – Negative Menschenhäuser), originally titled Die Regalenstadt (The Shelf City). This mixed-media work combines watercolour, acrylic priming, collage, egg tempera, acrylic, oil, and Indian ink on linen. Hundertwasser described it as a “fable” or “fairytale composition,” highlighting the constructive power of nature versus the destructive tendencies of human buildings. The painting features his signature upside-down imagery, transforming flowers into rain, a concept echoed in the playful and vibrant yarn tones.

Made from 75% virgin wool (superwash) and 25% polyamide, this hat is soft, absorbent, durable, and machine washable at 40°C. The superwash finish ensures it remains non-felting and unshrinkable, combining practical care with artistic inspiration.
