Ivara is a Tairen woman who is a member of the Kin. She is one of the Knitting Circle, though not a Wise Woman. She works as a goldsmith (A Crown of Swords, Chapter 31).

She is described as a dark woman with plump hands (A Crown of Swords, Chapter 31).

Timeline

• Ivara is present when Elayne, Merilille, Careane, Sareitha, Adeleas and Vandene visit the Kin's house. When Elayne tells them that the White Tower has always known about the Kin, Ivara gives a strangled scream. When Elayne tells them that that they may return to the Tower if they so wish, Ivara excitedly asks if they can become Aes Sedai after all, and Reanne chastises her for speaking out in front of Aes Sedai (A Crown of Swords, Chapter 31).

• Upon returning to the Tarasin Palace after battling in the Rahad, Ivara and some of the other members of the Knitting Circle guard the captured Ispan (A Crown of Swords, Chapter 39).

• Ivara accompanies Elayne, Nynaeve and company to the Kin's farm so that the Bowl of the Winds can be used. The Kinswomen do not wish to guard the captured Ispan, and try to talk Elayne into relieving them of the duty (The Path of Daggers, Chapter 1; The Path of Daggers, Chapter 3).

• After the Seanchan attack on the farm, Ivara and the rest of the Kinswomen accompany Elayne into Andor and then to the Royal Palace in Caemlyn (The Path of Daggers, Chapter 6; The Path of Daggers, Chapter 20; The Path of Daggers, Chapter 28).
