Size guide

The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm [31-33 (33-35) 35-37 (37-39) 39-43 (43-47) 47-51 (51-55) 55-59 inches].

The measurements for the finished garment are on the front page of the pattern. Before beginning your project, measure yourself to determine which size to knit. For example, if you measure 93 cm [34 inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size M. A size M cardigan has a bust circumference of 111 cm [43 inches] which in the given example would give you 18 cm [7 inches] of positive ease.
