The cleverly planned construction of this retro crocheted ruana is nothing short of brilliant. Three large triangles and two half triangles are pieced together so the colorful rows move in alternating directions. When completed, they are sewn or crocheted together, with an opening left for the front. A simple granny-inspired shell stitch lets the color do all the word.
