Poncho : Peruvian Ruana

  The ruana in the M&S display cost a bomb - so my daughter told her mom, 'You can make this!!' - and this shocking pink and black ruana took shape.
Didn't have circular needles of the right gauge, so did it in three pieces and sewed them together. after having reached the shoulder length, I split the pink into two pieces lengthwise for the front opening. A mock rib pattern was quick and easy to do. (Rt side: K1, P1, Wrong side : All K)
Tip: Give the front a bit of a 'V'shape  at the 'neck'.
