From there, the Right Front is worked up from the ribbing through the lower body, and the pockets are joined into the upper body as you go. The Left Front mirrors the same steps. Once both fronts reach the full length, they're joined at the center back to form the back neck ribbing, and the piece continues down in one unit to the bottom back ribbing. After blocking, the piece is folded in half and seamed up the sides, leaving the upper portion open for armholes, and the pocket trims are added at the very end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e💖 Why You'll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a project that keeps you engaged. The four stitch panels grow side by side in a satisfying rhythm, the color highlighting means you're never lost, and the finished ruana is genuinely wearable: toss it over jeans and a tee, layer it over a dress, or wrap up in it like a blanket on the couch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e📏 Sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFinished chest circumference is \u003cstrong\u003e64 (76)\" [162 (193) cm]\u003c\/strong\u003e after blocking, with a folded length of \u003cstrong\u003e22 (30)\" [56 (76) cm]\u003c\/strong\u003e. The smaller size works as a true one-size wrap that fits a wide range of bodies, while the larger size adds extra coverage, making this a lovely gift pattern when you're not 100% sure of someone's exact size. The pattern also includes guidance for mixing stitch count and row count if you're petite-and-larger-framed or tall-and-smaller-framed, plus a simple way to lengthen or shorten the body by a 16-row repeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e🧶 Yarn + Materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePatons Classic Wool Worsted \u003cem\u003e(100% pure new wool, 194 yds \/ 177 m, 3½ oz \/ 100 g, worsted weight CYCA #4)\u003c\/em\u003e, shown in Gray Plum, 8 (10) skeins.
