Free Crochet Pattern: Romantic Ruana

Lion Brand® Lion® Suede - Moonlight Mohair
Pattern #: clsu-ruana
This elegant version of a ruana was inspired by the romantic spirit of the British Isles. The rich fabric provides warmth and style whether you are touring the castles of Dundee, Scotland, enjoying a night at the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, or going out for dinner with friends on a cool fall evening in Boston’s North End.

The beauty of the ruana wrap is just how many ways you can wear it. Leave both sides down and flowing freely as you would a poncho or tie a sash to hold the front pieces in place. Throw one side over the opposite shoulder (as shown) or both sides around opposite arms and create a cowl neck. Choose a spectacular pin to hold your wrap in place.

Top off your look with our traditional Scottish tam you’ll feel like a fair lassie for sure!

Romantic Ruana

Lion Brand® Lion® Suede - Moonlight Mohair

GAUGE:

9 sts + 9 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in single crochet with A. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

When changing yarns, leave 7" [18 cm] tails to form fringe.

RUANA WRAP

Romantic Ruana Reviewed by LuAnn on 2011-03-19 *****
I made mine out of the Moonlight Mohair with three shades of Tweed Stripes. I used a size K hook; the results are stunning! I made mine longer (starting ch of 151) and bought an extra skien of each yarn. I am so sorry that Moonlight Mohair is being discontinued.
