Size Guide

The Champagne Cardigan should have a positive ease of approx. 28 cm relative to your bust circumference. The fit is oversized. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a body bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. The measurements of the finished cardigan are listed on the front. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine the size that fits you best. For example, if your bust circumference is 106 cm (or the widest part of your upper body), you should choose size XL. A size XL cardigan has a bust circumference of 134 cm and would in this case have a positive ease of 28 cm.
