Blueberries and Cream – free crochet pattern for a fabulous ruana wrap

The Blueberries and Cream crochet ruana shows off how differences can be beautiful. Two different weights of yarn are used to create a stylish look to this ruana wrap.

Dress up jeans and a tee, or accessorize your little black dress. The long fabric will flow beautifully in an evening breeze. There are so many ways to wear this garment, so grab a belt, a shawl pin, or just toss it on and show off your fabulousness!

The yarn for this design was provided by Kraemer Yarns. All opinions are my own.
