I really do like this ruana. It is very versatile and can be worn in several different ways -- crossed in the front, open in the front, or one front panel over the shoulder. It fits a lot like a rectangular poncho, except that it is open in the front. As you can see from the photos, it has a beautiful drape in the back. And the tassels are so much fun!
Thank you for checking out my ruana.

This blanket wrap / ruana is worked as one continuous piece in double crochet.
Detailed instructions for making the tassels are included as well.
This ruana is basically one-size-fits-most, but I do provide a gauge for those wishing to achieve the exact measurements.
