Creekside Crochet Ruana Pattern

The Creekside Ruana is proof that a simple silhouette can still feel like a statement piece. Worked up in worsted weight yarn with a mix of linked double crochet, a ribbed edge, and a shell stitch pattern, it’s the kind of oversized layer you’ll reach for constantly once it’s on your shoulders.

This ruana comes together in one piece, which means minimal finishing once your last stitch is done, and it comes with built-in pockets, because a wrap this cozy should also be practical.
