Lambswool Ruana Kerry Woollen Mills Irish Turf

color was darker than expected, but still a lovely shawl. I am 5'6" and it's longer than expected. and shaped a bit like a cape, with a back and front with points that dangle. the wool is light, not scratchy and yet warm when you need it to be. perfect for sitting out on a deck in late summer and fall. Great for walks - just be aware this shawl is long - and you can wrap it around in various ways, but it is not a square or a rectangular shape - it is pieced to be worn as a longer shoulder wrap. Good value for the $; price here is almost $50 less than on other sites and shipping is free with Prime.

Very nice quality and I like it for meditation shawl or for cold weather wrap. Makes nice option for night out when in cool weather or wind. Or snuggle when traveling by air or train. Attractive color combination. Wearing options: http://www.a-wee-bit-of-ireland.com/how_to_wear_ruana/how_to_wear_ruana.html

I love ruanas and have quite a few of them. Each year I treat myself to a new one. Just received this ruana and it is GORGEOUS! The colors are beautiful and the ruana drapes beautifully. This is not a real heavy weight ruana and as I live in Wisconsin, I doubt it will be warm enough for December and January. But it is perfect for Fall. I love it so much that I have also ordered the same ruana in the teal check.

This ruana is lovely. The wool is a boucle, so there is some texture and loft to it even though it is very lightweight. It is drapey, long, and warm (like a favorite sweater, not a down coat!). The color is a beautiful red, not too dark, with a mix of subtle olive, pink, and dark red in it. I am 5'4" and the longest draped corners reach my lower calves. It looks both casual and elegant all at the same time! I may add a pin or button at the chest area, just so that I do not have to reclose the front while wearing it, but it is fine as is. I can toss one of the front sections over the opposite shoulder if I want a different look. This is a versatile piece that can be worn with a variety of tops to go from sporty to dressy. It will be a favorite item this season, and I hope that it lasts for many years.

I bought this last summer and had not had a chance to really experience how wonderfully cozy this ruana is! However, this last winter I would put it on in the morning and not take it off until I went to bed! My house is kinda drafty and chilly in the winter so it would come in handy when it actually gets cold in Texas!

I purchased three of these. I like natural fiber fabrics and living in Florida fabrics can't be too heavy. These are the perfect size and weight. My daughter just loves the one I gave her. The price is right and the colors are beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity to purchase these.

I looked at this ruana for a year before purchasing. I'm so glad I finally went ahead and bought it! I went with the blackberry green because I thought I could wear it with just about everything. I was not disappointed. It's warm, and the way it drapes is quite elegant. I may have to get one in another color!

I like it...sort of...but am sending it back. It is definitely quality material, wool, not as soft as I expected, on the thin side but I expected that from the pictures & reviews. Definitely not a winter item, Fall, if you wear it over a warm sweater or T-neck. I got the Wild Berry color which is much darker than the photo shows (I wanted another color but it wasn't available.). I've never worn this type of garment & there is no photo of it actually on a person, so maybe that's why I am sending it back: at 5'2" tall, when I wear it open style, it is a bit long for me, but - if I toss the ends over my shoulders, the front only comes to my waist, which I don't like; I wanted something more like a cape I guess, so I will keep searching here. A good item, if it's your style. And a brighter color perhaps.
